-Important Security Note
-=======================
-
-Python's built-in SSL module does not do certificate validation.
-
-To address this, we've introduced the libcloud.security module with tunable
-parameters.
-
-View the entire guide at: <http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/LibcloudSSL>
-
-Enabling SSL Certificate Check
-==============================
-
-   import libcloud.security
-   libcloud.security.VERIFY_SSL_CERT = True
-
-   # optionally, add to CA_CERTS_PATH
-   libcloud.security.CA_CERTS_PATH.append("/path/to/your/cacerts.txt")
-
-CA_CERTS_PATH contains common paths to CA bundle installations on the
-following platforms:
-
- * openssl on CentOS/Fedora
- * ca-certificates on Debian/Ubuntu/Arch/Gentoo
- * ca_root_nss on FreeBSD
- * curl-ca-bundle on Mac OS X
-
-Note for OS X Users
-===================
-
-OS X root certificates are stored in the Keychain format, unlike the standard
-PEM format available on other *nix platforms.  For this reason, it is not
-possible to include the standard OS X root certificates with CA_CERTS_PATH.
-
-Acquiring CA Certificates
-=========================
-
-If the above packages are unavailable to you, and you don't wish to roll your
-own, the makers of cURL provides an excellent resource, generated from
-Mozilla: http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html
