If you had read the links I provided you would see that it is not
enough and what upstream needs to do to add an exception for OpenSSL -
see especially the 3rd link below.

http://ftp-master.debian.org/REJECT-FAQ.html
http://www.openssl.org/support/faq.html#LEGAL2
http://www.gnome.org/~markmc/openssl-and-the-gpl.html

Examples of the OpenSSL exception in use in Debian can be found here:
