Has anyone put thought into SSL/HTTPS?

Folks,

I'm wondering if anyone has given any thought to SSL/HTTPS. I suspect it's probably going to be too much of a challenge within the Propellers memory constraints. But if we consider external key generation (maybe on a Linux box, then writing to the SD card), and some other tricks maybe we can squeeze it in.

Before I do more research;

Has anyone done any research on this possibility?

Has anyone got any real world experience in implementing SSL/HTTPS on a micro-controller.

I agree this is probably the holy grail for the Spinneret, and would likely need many hands to achieve if it's at all technically feasable.

Thoughts?

    If you need SSL then there is always the option of front ending the Spinneret with some sort of proxy to make that happen. I've seen that done with an Apache or with some of the Network devices like an F5 or A10.
