Bill Janssen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: I'm afraid you're ahead of me in knowledge here. I've experimented with the ciphers a bit, but there seem to be various compatibility issues. I finally decided to let the OpenSSL folks and various standard groups worry about this; the designation of SSL 2, SSL 3, or TLS 1, is supposed to select the appropriate cipher groups.
Now, as to making the default be different: we discussed this on python-dev a bit. I think it might make sense to default to TLS 1, even at the expense of compatibility, but we (the two or three of us actually discussing it) finally decided to go with what the current Python socket.ssl module used. ---------- nosy: +janssen _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3597> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
