Re:Bug in Lynx's SSL certificate validation – leaks password... by opheliate on Saturday August 07, 2021 @12:11PM (#28099684)
I happened to go to the Lynx Wikipedia page on seeing this news - I never realised it was based on libwww, the original library written by Tim Berners-Lee and Jean-François Groff for HTTP clients back in 1992. Presumably the fork is pretty much unrecognisable at this point, but what an incredible heritage!
