4* As far as I am concerned, the code I have written for this software
5* can be used freely for any purpose. Any derived versions of this

11* However, I am not implying to give any licenses to any patents or
12* copyrights held by third parties, and the software includes parts that
13* are not under my direct control. As far as I know, all included
14* source code is used in accordance with the relevant license agreements
15* and can be used freely for any purpose (the GNU license being the most
16* restrictive); see below for details.

28- TSS has been removed
29- MD5 is now external, in the OpenSSL library
