I noticed that building SSL libraries as shared libraries is currently =
not available on all
Unix platforms. Our application supports many different Unix platforms =
- some of which the "shared"
option doesn't build an .so. (I expected to see libssl.so and =
libcrypto.so).

Is there a list of Unix platforms where .so libraries can be built?
Is there any current project to update the build scripts to build shared =
.so files on all Unixes?
If not, where is the openssl contribution process document if I update =
the build scripts?

thanks - Jim
