Ok, thank you.
I have tried to put some effort into the py3k ssl docs, so that security
issues get mentioned:
http://docs.python.org/dev/py3k/library/ssl.html#security-considerations
Any improvement or correction is welcome.

Also, following issue1589 (certificate hostname checking), I think it
would be useful at least to provide the necessary helper functions in
order to check certificate conformity, even if they aren't called
implicitly. I would encourage interested people to provide a patch for
the py3k ssl module, and will gladly review it.

Regards

Antoine.
