A lot of time has passed since my last blog post. It’s also been a long time since I started this blog. For over 12 years I have been providing precompiled OpenSSL libraries. With this blog I wanted to make the work on this and the Delphi Encryption Compendium more transparent.
I was very closely involved with Delphi and the community around it for many years. Some know me as a conference speaker, others through forums.
But my spare time became more and more limited and for the last 4 years I have published updates directly without any blog post. With the newer OpenSSL versions the build process has changed drastically and due to the lack of my own use of Windows or Delphi (anymore) I currently have no need and no time left to implement the complex changes.
It is time for me to move on. New professional and private challenges have been keeping me busy for a long time. I have to focus on them now.
In the past, many well-known Fortune 500 companies have indirectly trusted me. Even somebody at the NASA thought it was worth a small hint1. That was amazing! 🚀🤩
I want to thank all of you for your loyalty and support over the years.
See you soon, maybe at conferences. Live long and prosper 🖖
P.S.: The blog will remain an archive for now. Comments will be deactivated at some point.
P.P.S.: As Remy pointed out in his comment, the new location of the Indy-related OpenSSL libraries is on GitHub: https://github.com/IndySockets/OpenSSL-Binaries.

See Windows Client Step 6: “Click on the link that says “Pre-compiled Win32/64 libraries without external dependencies to the Microsoft Visual Studio Runtime DLLs, except for the system provided msvcrt.dll”. This is important! That link refers you to indy.fulgan.com/SSL.”
