           Summary: Update discussion of SSL/TLS versions
           Product: Apache httpd-2
           Version: 2.3-HEAD
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Documentation
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: andrew@mcdonald.org.uk


Current text of the mod_ssl manual page (docs/manual/mod/mod_ssl.html.en) says
about TLSv1:
"This is the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol, version 1.0. It is the
successor to SSLv3 and currently (as of February 1999) still under construction
by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). It's still not supported by any
popular browsers."
This is very out of date.

A suggestion for replacing this:
This is the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol, version 1.0. It is the
successor to SSLv3 and is defined in RFC2246
[http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2246.txt]. It's supported by almost all popular
browsers.

It may also be worth adding to the SSLv2 description a statement saying that its
use is deprecated, because of weaknesses in the security of the protocol.

It's worth noting that RFC2246 is obsoleted by RFC4346.
