+ Fix incorrect dialyzer spec and types, also enhance
+ documentation. </p>
+ <p>
+ Thanks to Ayaz Tuncer.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11627</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Fix possible mismatch between SSL/TLS version and default
+ ciphers. Could happen when you specified SSL/TLS-version
+ in optionlist to listen or accept.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11712</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Application upgrade (appup) files are corrected for the
+ following applications: </p>
+ <p>
+ <c>asn1, common_test, compiler, crypto, debugger,
+ dialyzer, edoc, eldap, erl_docgen, et, eunit, gs, hipe,
+ inets, observer, odbc, os_mon, otp_mibs, parsetools,
+ percept, public_key, reltool, runtime_tools, ssh,
+ syntax_tools, test_server, tools, typer, webtool, wx,
+ xmerl</c></p>
+ <p>
+ A new test utility for testing appup files is added to
+ test_server. This is now used by most applications in
+ OTP.</p>

+ <p>
+ Moved elliptic curve definition from the crypto
+ NIF/OpenSSL into Erlang code, adds the RFC-5639 brainpool
+ curves and makes TLS use them (RFC-7027).</p>
+ <p>
+ Thanks to Andreas Schultz</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11578</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Unicode adaptations</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11620</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Added option honor_cipher_order. This instructs the
+ server to prefer its own cipher ordering rather than the
+ client's and can help protect against things like BEAST
+ while maintaining compatability with clients which only
+ support older ciphers. </p>
+ <p>
+ Thanks to Andrew Thompson for the implementation, and
+ Andreas Schultz for the test cases.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11621</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Replace boolean checking in validate_option with
+ is_boolean guard. </p>
+ <p>
+ Thanks to Andreas Schultz.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11634</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Some function specs are corrected or moved and some edoc
+ comments are corrected in order to allow use of edoc.
+ (Thanks to Pierre Fenoll)</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11702</p>

+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Correct clean up of certificate database when certs are
+ inputed in pure DER format.The incorrect code could cause
+ a memory leek when certs where inputed in DER. Thanks to
+ Bernard Duggan for reporting this.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11733</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Improved documentation of the cacertfile option</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11759 Aux Id: seq12535 </p>

+ <p>
+ Avoid next protocol negotiation failure due to incorrect
+ option format.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11760</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Handle v1 CRLs, with no extensions and fixes issues with
+ IDP (Issuing Distribution Point) comparison during CRL
+ validation. </p>
+ <p>
+ Thanks to Andrew Thompson</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11761</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Server now ignores client ECC curves that it does not
+ support instead of crashing. </p>
+ <p>
+ Thanks to Danil Zagoskin for reporting the issue and
+ suggesting a solution.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11780</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Handle SNI (Server Name Indication) alert
+ unrecognized_name and gracefully deal with unexpected
+ alerts. </p>
+ <p>
+ Thanks to Masatake Daimon for reporting this.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11815</p>

+ <p>
+ Add possibility to specify ssl options when calling
+ ssl:ssl_accept</p>

+ <p>
+ Add missing validation of the server_name_indication
+ option and test for its explicit use. It was not possible
+ to set or disable the default server_name_indication as
+ the validation of the option was missing.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11567</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Elliptic curve selection in server mode now properly
+ selects a curve suggested by the client, if possible, and
+ the fallback alternative is changed to a more widely
+ supported curve.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11575</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Bug in the TLS hello extension handling caused the server
+ to behave as it did not understand secure renegotiation.</p>
