------- Additional Comments From trawick@apache.org  2002-11-21 13:24 -------
Not much software supports RFC2817.  It is not required for the web as
we know it.  It certainly is not "highly required nowdays."

Some of the known problems with RFC 2817 are listed here:

http://jis.mit.edu/pipermail/saag/2001q4/000253.html

Technically this is an "Enhancement" request, not a problem with "Major" severity.

Somebody did start playing with TLS upgrade support recently but they seem
to have lost interest.  See the archives of dev@httpd.apache.org for October 2002.
