Version 1.11.3, Not Yet Released
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+* A new TLS policy mechanism
+ :cpp:func:`TLS::Policy::server_uses_own_ciphersuite_preferences`
+ controls how a server chooses a ciphersuite. Previously it always
+ chose its most preferred cipher out of the client's list, but this
+ can allow configuring a server to choose by the client's preferences
+ instead.
+
* Implementations of the OCB and GCM authenticated cipher modes are
now included
