             Summary: Add support for SSL session resumption
                 Key: PROTON-136
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-136
             Project: Qpid Proton
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: proton-c
    Affects Versions: 0.3
            Reporter: Affan Dar



Open SSL supports resumption of SSL sessions which by-pass the heavy SSL 
handshake process. This is critical for scenarios involving low powered devices 
especially on cellular data networks where bandwidth is precious.

It would be great if Proton exposes this ssl resume feature to users. .

Ok, let's start with this step then. I'm open to providing something finer 
grained if there is a need, but my preference is to keep it simple for the 
moment.

Ok, good to know.

Could one of you file a JIRA for this upstream? I'm trying to get things a 
little more organized on the process front and keep everything centralized in 
JIRA. ;-)
