Hi Dick,

Thanks for this link. KiCad-Winbuilder just puts the 1.0.0d release of the
luadist openssl project in it's environment and points the OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR
variable to the install. This works well - so there's no need for me to
create a separate project. The Luadist openssl binary release is compiled
to rely only on msvcrt, so there are no C-Runtime library conflicts.

We could easily use this project through ExternalProject_Add to if we
preferred that approach.

Best Regards,

Brian.
