 is it some policy about introducing new features in stable branch?
 

Yes the extension code hasn't been widely tested in the field and it is a
policy that where such code is added to a stable release it isn't enabled by
default.

Question about tlsext option with 0.9.8 (Steve?)

[Guenter Knauf]

Hi Steve,
just curious why enable-tlsext isnt enabled by default in 0.9.8 branch as it is 
with 0.9.9...
is it some policy about introducing new features in stable branch?

Thanks, Guenter.
