Introduction to GnuTLS

I'll introduce GnuTLS and mention it features over the competition, and talk about problems facing a free software project in an area which has many patents.

GnuTLS is a SSL/TLS implementation for the GNU system. SSL/TLS is the network security protocol used by HTTPS, and numerus other network protocols to provide X.509, OpenPGP etc security.
