* The :class:`ftplib.FTP` class now supports the context manager protocol
(Contributed by Tarek Ziadé and Giampaolo Rodolà; :issue:`4972`.)
* The :mod:`ssl` module has a new class, :class:`~ssl.SSLContext` which
serves as a container for various persistent SSL data, such as protocol
settings, certificates, private keys, and various other options.
The :meth:`~ssl.SSLContext.wrap_socket` method allows to create an
SSL socket from such an SSL context.
(Added by Antoine Pitrou; :issue:`8550`.)
The :func:`ssl.wrap_socket` constructor function now takes a
*ciphers* argument that's a string listing the encryption algorithms
to be allowed; the format of the string is described
`in the OpenSSL documentation
<http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/ciphers.html#CIPHER_LIST_FORMAT>`__.
(Added by Antoine Pitrou; :issue:`8322`.)
Various options have been added to the :mod:`ssl` module, such as
:data:`~ssl.OP_NO_SSLv2` which allows to force disabling of the insecure
and obsolete SSLv2 protocol.
(Added by Antoine Pitrou; :issue:`4870`.)
Another change makes the extension load all of OpenSSL's ciphers and
digest algorithms so that they're all available. Some SSL
certificates couldn't be verified, reporting an "unknown algorithm"
error. (Reported by Beda Kosata, and fixed by Antoine Pitrou;
:issue:`8484`.)
The version of OpenSSL being used is now available as the module
attributes :data:`ssl.OPENSSL_VERSION` (a string),
:data:`ssl.OPENSSL_VERSION_INFO` (a 5-tuple), and
:data:`ssl.OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER` (an integer). (Added by Antoine
Pitrou; :issue:`8321`.)
* The previously deprecated :func:`string.maketrans` function has been
removed in favor of the static methods, :meth:`bytes.maketrans` and
:meth:`bytearray.maketrans`. This change solves the confusion around which
