Hi Ben,

Thanks for the prompt response. I downloaded the latest snapshot of the source 
today (210ba96.tar.gz) and built it. When this new OVS initiates a SSL 
connection to the controller, it still uses TLS 1.0 to send the hello. Can you 
please verify that the fix in place is working correctly?

Regards,
Abhinav

It's a bug.  I sent out a fix:

It's a public mailing list, there is no confidentiality.
