Hi,

Right after we pushed 1.5.1 out (I have not even sent the announce email), we 
discovered that Java 6 requires SSLv2Hello on the server side for negotiation 
even if TLS is used (unless the client code is also changed to disable 
SSLv2Hello). So:


- For HTTP Source, any clients running on Java 6 would need code changes to 
also disable SSLv2Hello to be able to send data via TLSv1.
- For Avro Source, any clients running Flume SDK < 1.5.1 on Java 6 would break 
and requires the client application to upgrade to 1.5.1. 


I filed FLUME-2547 to fix this.


My question to the community here is whether we want a new release bringing 
SSLv2Hello back or if we are willing to just document this and move forward?


I am willing to put together an RC if required.

Thanks,
Hari
