Hi Kyle I agree. This topic came up briefly at our recent OpenSSL team meeting in Dusseldorf. I think there was a strong consensus within the team to create a new name (probably with SSLv23_method #defined to point to the new name). The name TLS_method has been proposed. This would be from 1.1.0 onwards (its too late for 1.0.2) Matt ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
