 ❦ 17 septembre 2015 00:57 +0200, Stig Sandbeck Mathisen <ssm@debian.org> :

>  hitch is a network proxy that terminates TLS/SSL connections and

>  machines.
>  .
>  Features
>   * TLS1.0, TLS1.1 and TLS1.2 support
>   * SNI, with and without wildcard certificates.
>   * Support for HAproxy's PROXY protocol.

> hitch is a fork of stud (https://github.com/bumptech/stud) which has not

>
> hitch is used at my workplace for TLS termination of online newspapers,

> Hitch will be maintained in the collab-maint group, or in the
> pkg-varnish group. Extra hands for maintenance would be welcome.

Do you want to provide some upgrade path for stud users? At some point,
