+	    TLS-1.2 clients will now always send hello messages on
+	    its own format, as opposed to earlier versions that will
+	    send the hello on the lowest supported version, this is a
+	    change supported by the latest RFC.</p>
+          <p>
+	    This will make interoperability with some newer servers
+	    smoother. Potentially, but unlikely, this could cause a
+	    problem with older servers if they do not adhere to the
+	    RFC and ignore unknown extensions.</p>
+          <p>
+	    *** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***</p>

+	    Allow Erlang/OTP to use OpenSSL in FIPS-140 mode, in
+	    order to satisfy specific security requirements (mostly
+	    by different parts of the US federal government). </p>
+          <p>
+	    See the new crypto users guide "FIPS mode" chapter about
+	    building and using the FIPS support which is disabled by
+	    default.</p>

+	    Implemented DTLS cookie generation, requiered by spec,
+	    instead of using hardcode value.</p>

+	    Extend connection_information/[1,2] . The values
+	    session_id, master_secret, client_random and
+	    server_random can no be accessed by
+	    connection_information/2. Note only session_id will be
+	    added to connection_information/1. The rational is that
+	    values concerning the connection security should have to
+	    be explicitly requested.</p>

+	    Basic support for DTLS that been tested together with
+	    OpenSSL.</p>
+          <p>
+	    Test by providing the option {protocol, dtls} to the ssl
+	    API functions connect and listen.</p>
