 New function :func:`~ssl.create_default_context` provides a standard way to
-obtain an :class:`~ssl.SSLContext` based on the settings Python uses by
-default.  These settings are more stringent than the defaults provided by the
-:class:`~ssl.SSLContext` constructor, and may be adjusted (without notice) in
-the future to maintain a balance between compatibility and security.
