Problem is that users care for the cat macros and wedding pictures on their social network of choice. If the old version of browser works or an other browser works then it /obviously/ is the new browsers fault that the connection fails so it's the /new/ browser that is broken. So the browser vendor implements out-of-protocol fallback to old protocol version so that it continues to work. That's a Bad Thing. -- Regards, Hubert Kario Senior Quality Engineer, QE BaseOS Security team Web: www.cz.redhat.com Red Hat Czech s.r.o., Purkyňova 99/71, 612 45, Brno, Czech Republic
