It looks like the OpenSSL library in Python 2.7.7 on Windows should be 1.0.1. However, when I install Python 2.7.7 on my system, C:\Python27>python Python 2.7.7 (default, Jun 1 2014, 14:17:13) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import ssl >>> ssl.OPENSSL_VERSION 'OpenSSL 0.9.8y 5 Feb 2013' >>> Which is the previous version. Did I miss something, or did this not make it into 2.7.7? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
