Huzzah, thanks for organising this again!

I've forwarded the email to a few folks to suggest they submit
presentation proposals, but I also have a question for everyone else:
would folks be interested in a summary of the SSL/TLS handling
developments over the past couple of years and open issues (aka
"things that are still hard that we would prefer were simpler") we
could potentially help with in core dev?

I don't think there's anything in particular pending that can't be
handled just via the mailing lists and issue tracker, so this would be
more a question of whether or not folks that haven't been following it
closely would like to learn more about the *why* of it all. (Or,
equivalently, "What do we know about network security management now
that we didn't know back when the ssl module was added to Python
2.6?")

Cheers,
Nick.
