[ANN] kgio-monkey - kinder, gentler, SSL/TLS I/O for Ruby

[Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net>]

Wraps OpenSSL to provide {kgio}[http://bogomips.org/kgio/]-compatible
kgio_trywrite and kgio_tryread IO methods to Kgio::SSL wrapper objects.

== WARNING!!!!!!!!1

This project is NOT maintained nor reviewed by anybody with any
credentials in security nor cryptography, use at your own risk.

Security/code/all reviews are very welcome, email us at
mailto:kgio@librelist.org (or mailto:kgio@bogomips.org if you wish to
remain anonymous).

This project is NOT an endorsement of OpenSSL itself.  This project uses
OpenSSL only because Ruby already bundles the "openssl" extension and we
don't have time to maintain full Ruby bindings for NSS or any another
SSL/TLS library.

== Install

Ruby 1.8.6 and earlier is NOT supported.

The library consists of a C extension so you'll need a Unix-like system
with a C compiler and Ruby development libraries/headers.
