Maybe we are talking at cross purposes, I'm not sure, surely by
definition adding a transport that was not previously supported is
adding a new transport regardless of the way you do it. I think you are
trying to argue that your strategy for adding this new ssl transport is
low risk.

I'm arguing 2 things:

1. I don't think I like your strategy, but I'm not 100% clear what it is
exactly yet. The whole Connector layer is a shim layer so adding another
shim seems to me to be likely to complicate things and hinder
refactoring clean ups to merge the existing posix ssl and tcp transports
into more maintainable code.

2. I'm planning to put out a release candidate at the end of the week
and I don't want to destabilise existing well working code in the next
few days.

I'm sorry that windows ssl will not be in 0.6, but I'm very open to
making the 0.7 release cycle very short if there are features that
people want to release very soon.

All that being said I'd be keen to see your proposed code for review
before checkin.

Andrew
