The HTTP Source does not have any config parameter in the user guide. Only for 
the Avro Source, is there configuration mentioned in the user guide (though for 
now, it is possible to use SSLv3, but we can disable that in a future release - 
right now we provide the option, so I guess that would be enough). So I guess 
we are ok?


Thanks,
Hari
