Re: [Ccrtp-devel] zrtpcpp, OpenSSL, and Debian

[Werner Dittmann]

Actually ZRTP and it's SRTP implementation can be build without
openSSL in a so-called stand-alone mode. The ZRTP source have all
necessary algorithms (Hash, crypto etc), it's a matter how ZRTP
and CCRTP are build. We don't use openSSL in in several ZRTP
projects anymore.
