+	    Distribution over SSL (inet_tls) has, to improve
+	    performance, been rewritten to not use intermediate
+	    processes and ports.</p>

+	    The interoperability option to fallback to insecure
+	    renegotiation now has to be explicitly turned on.</p>

+	    Drop support for SSLv2 enabled clients. SSLv2 has been
+	    broken for decades and never supported by the Erlang
+	    SSL/TLS implementation. This option was by default
+	    disabled and enabling it has proved to sometimes break
+	    connections not using SSLv2 enabled clients.</p>

+	    Remove CHACHA20_POLY1305 ciphers form default for now. We
+	    have discovered interoperability problems, ERL-538, that
+	    we believe needs to be solved in crypto.</p>

+	    add future DTLS features and uses.</p>

+	    The SSL distribution protocol <c>-proto inet_tls</c> has
+	    stopped setting the SSL option
+	    <c>server_name_indication</c>. New verify funs for client
+	    and server in <c>inet_tls_dist</c> has been added, not
+	    documented yet, that checks node name if present in peer
+	    certificate. Usage is still also yet to be documented.</p>
