Once the wording is finalized my intention is to apply the exception
statement to each *.[ch] file which can potentially be linked with OpenSSL,
and not to those files which are not normally linked with OpenSSL (namely
the source files to ptal-mlcd, which doesn't use SNMP). For clarity I will
also add it to the LICENSE file and to the license statement at
http://hpoj.sourceforge.net/download.shtml, but state that it applies to
some but not all files in the package. Since HP doesn't own the copyright
on xojpanel I'll need to get approval from its copyright holders (Joe
Piolunek and Andreas Fester) before applying the statement to its source
files.
