There were two requests: the bylaws and whether modified grant would be
acceptable.  If, instead of an unrestricted grant in the CLA it were
restricted to relicensing to an OSI approved licence, the need to do
due diligence on the foundation goes away.

It's not actually my code: I'm just updating it, so I'm unable to say
what the long term plan actually is.  I would think, though, that
hardware engines, since they're highly OS support dependent, would be
difficult to keep within openssl itself given that you want to compile
on multiple platforms.
