  Description     : C99 implementation of the TLS/SSL protocols

 s2n-tls is a C99 implementation of the TLS/SSL protocols that is
 designed to be simple, small, fast, and with security as a
 priority. It is released and licensed under the Apache License 2.0.
 .
 The s2n-tls I/O APIs are designed to be intuitive to developers
 familiar with the widely-used POSIX I/O APIs, and s2n-tls supports
 blocking, non-blocking, and full-duplex I/O. Additionally there are
 no locks or mutexes within s2n-tls.
 .
 s2n-tls implements SSLv3, TLS1.0, TLS1.1, and TLS1.2. For encryption,
 s2n-tls supports 128-bit and 256-bit AES, in the CBC and GCM modes,
 ChaCha20, 3DES, and RC4. For forward secrecy, s2n-tls supports both
 DHE and ECDHE. s2n-tls also supports the Server Name Indicator (SNI),
 Application-Layer Protocol Negotiation (ALPN) and the Online
 Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) TLS extensions. SSLv3, RC4, 3DES
 and DHE are each disabled by default for security reasons.
 .
 As it can be difficult to keep track of which encryption algorithms
 and protocols are best to use, s2n-tls features a simple API to use
 the latest "default" set of preferences. If you prefer to remain on a
 specific version for backwards compatibility, that is also supported.

This package will be maintained by the cloud team.  Initial packaging is
being driven by the awscli package, version 2 of which will depend on this
package.
