OpenSSL 1.0.0 reached its end of life more than four years ago. I see no
point in supporting such an old version of a critical crypto library
taken into account number of known security vulnerabilities that have
been discovered since that version stopped receiving security fixes. As
of now, I do not consider anything older than OpenSSL 1.0.2 as worth
supporting and I'd point out that even 1.0.2 has reached its end of life
(but has option for paid extended support). Furthermore, version 1.1.0
is not supported either.
