Enhancement
The version of OpenSSL used in get_externals.bat is 1.1.1q, where 1.1.1s has been released. This in turn pulls from https://github.com/python/cpython-bin-deps/tree/openssl-bin, which was last updated by @zooba to 1.1.1q
Pitch
It would be nice to get the latest updates. Looking at the changelog I don't see anything critial for windows, so maybe 1.1.1q is still OK, in which csae feel free to close the issue.
