Thank you.

Actually, the interesting part starts before that. You moved the code
out from OpenSC to separate engine_pkcs11 and libp11 repositories in
August/September 2005.

But they all appeared, in a big lump, in OpenSC in May 2003:
https://github.com/OpenSC/OpenSC/commit/496232d9b

Where did they come from before that? 

There are commits earlier in the OpenSC history which strongly imply
that the engine code was already there — Olaf's commit f169b5c891
tweaks some autoconf code and is titled "only build sslengine if
OpenSSL supports it". But according to the git history there *is* no
code at that point; only the autoconf test...
