               And in other news, old man shakes fist at clouds

Last week LibreSSL (Secure Socket Layer) [1] released a vew version of
libtls. I'm not using LibreSSL's version of libtls but libretls [2], a port
of LibreSSL's libtls to OpenSSL [3] (got that? Good). So I pull down the code
so I can add the new features to my Lua TLS (Transport Layer Security) module
[4] when I notice the TLS_API (Application Programming Interface) version
hasn't been updated. Again [5]!

I swear, what is up with the LibreSSL guys and not updating the TLS_API
value? If they aren't going to update the value, why even have it in the
first place?
