By it I meant the code that was using KSSL, in kopete so the IRC
plugin and the groupwise one (and maybe others).

Well we need to know what will be the way to create a secure socket,
and we will conform to that.
In addition we need to be able to manage the SSL keys for servers, and
be able to create socket that will use these keys. Maybe we also need
to dynamically accept/manage keys on these socket when trying to
connect.

That's all I think for now. If some have other ideas ?
