Apologies if the last thing people want to talk about right now is the next version of TLS.
There was much discussion about bumping TLS 1.3's version number to "TLS 4" or thereabouts (so as to be higher than "SSLv3"). The ship has sailed on that and it is "TLS 1.3". I think there was widespread agreement that TLS 1.3 represented something a bit more substantial than a minor version bump, and a desire to have a TLS version number bigger than the SSL version number lest people get confused and deploy SSLv3 instead of TLS 1.3. Modest proposal: TLS 1.4 => TLS 4 I bring this up so soon because I think a lot of the pushback regarding doing this before was due to changing the version so late in the development cycle. -- Tony Arcieri
