Releases Distribution Changes - OpenSSL Blog
openssl.org
I’d like to give you a heads-up about some changes we’re making at OpenSSL. We’re simplifying how you can get our software, and that means we’re …

We’re no longer using our old ftp, rsync, and git links for distributing OpenSSL. These were great in their day, but it’s time to move on to something better and safer. ftp://ftp.openssl.org and rsync://rsync.openssl.org are not available anymore. As of June 1, 2024, we’re also going to shut down https://ftp.openssl.org and git://git.openssl.org/openssl.git mirrors.

GitHub is becoming the main distributor of the OpenSSL releases.

    Microsoft GitHub is riddled with bugs, is down at least once a month, & throttles non-Western IPs.

      What bugs? Be specific…

      Also, I can’t remember the last time Github has been offline for me (in the last 3.5 years of using it at work)

        The one I ran into 2 days ago was a user approving a pull request while I was requesting their & other maintainers review. It canceled their approval & I had to fetch them to reapprove since in that project no-green-checkmark-no-merge. It should not have erased their approval.

        I bet you live in the West. My daytime, there are heaps of outages.
