From the GnuTLS Web page:

     GnuTLS is a project that aims to develop a library which provides
     a secure layer, over a reliable transport layer. Currently the
     GnuTLS library implements the proposed standards by the IETF's TLS
     working group.

GnuTLS implements TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0.  Unlike OpenSSL, it supports the
use of OpenPGP keys as trust certificates.

Please find attached an ebuild for gnutls-0.8.6 and opencdk-0.4.5 (a
package for manipulating OpenPGP messages that GnuTLS depends on).

what currently uses gnutls ? and what are the advantages of it over say openssl
which supports SSLv3/TLS ?

CenterICQ uses GNUTLS for example. Well, it can use either OpenSSL or GNUTLS.
But IMHO Gentoo *should* have GNUTLS ebuilds! :o) I need it for building
CenterICQ cvs snapshots for example. I installed in in /usr/local right now,
but that leads to problems with autoconf, as the gnutls macros are located in
/usr/local/share/aclocal, but autoconf only looks in /usr/share/aclocal.

Gossip (a fairly new Jabber client for Gnome 2) and centericq (most recent
version) currently use GNUTLS.  It'd be nice to see at least an ~x86 build in
the tree.
