[openssl-users] OpenSSL Release Strategy and Blog

I as a user, I have two points of concern"

1 - Will the RSA structure be opaque?  I have a continuing need to 
construct an RSA structure from binary arrays of public and private key 
parts and vice versa.

Will I lose that?

2 - The SHA contexts are already opaque, but I have to cheat and look 
into them anyway.  The use case is "live migration."  I have a hash 
operation in progress, and I have to serialize the context to move to 
another machine.

Any alternative to looking into the structure?
