Hi,

I indend to land OpenSSL 3.5 soon, which was just released upstream. See

  https://openssl-library.org/post/2025-04-08-openssl-35-final-release/

for the upstream announcement.

I have a pull request available at

  https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/28091

In my testing, all tests pass and everything works as expected. However,
in the past there have been problems on older operating systems with new
OpenSSL minor releases. If you care about such older operating systems,
go grab the pull request now and test it, then report tickets and
ideally be prepared to bisect where potential issues were introduced
upstream so they can be addressed.

If I don't hear back and CI passes, I intend to merge the pull request
later this week.

OpenSSL 3.5 keeps a stable ABI and does not introduce
backwards-incompatible API changes, so I don't believe it will be
necessary to revbump all ports depending on OpenSSL for this.
