Moved by Randall Becker, Seconded by James Bourne on 21 Aug 2025:

Whereas no objections (or any other comments for that matter) have been received on inquiries to the either of the communities we represent, be it hereby decided that the SSLv3 feature shall be removed for the next major OpenSSL LTS release. This shall be referred to the Technical Advisory Board for action.
