Hello Release Team,

Due to a security issue in the underlying Let's Encrypt protocol, one of the 
main methods of getting certificates from Let's Encrypt has been disabled (the 
TLS-SNI-01 protocol; 
https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/tls-sni-challenges-disabled-for-most-new-issuance/50316
 for more info).

This puts us in a bit of an awkward spot.  The upstream certbot provider is 
preparing to do a new release that has support for HTTP-01 inside the 
python-certbot-apache and python-certbot-nginx plugins, as well as the required 
work in python-acme and python-certbot (and certbot), but I'm not sure 
backporting the patches is realistic.  A lot of development has been done in 
the interim, both in the certbot packaging and in the upstream software.  
Without those patches, users with the apache or nginx plugins will fail to 
update their certificates starting 2018-04-09.

I can talk to the certbot upstream to see if they'd be willing to help backport 
the patches (CCed), but initial conversations seem to indicate that doing so 
will be difficult.

The other approach that we can take is to backport the next version that 
supports the new challenge through to s-p-u and into stable.  I'm guessing that 
you will ask me to unwind the work I did to convert to python3 in the last 
release (sadface), but I can do that if that's what it needs to get this fixed 
in stable.

Gurus and Wise Ones, I beseech you for guidance!
