Hello Folks,

I'd like to suggest the "ciphers" documentation in 1.1.0 be updated to include 
the old EDH names for ciphers which were renamed to DHE between 1.0.2 & 
1.1.0-pre.
I think there are only two affected which are still available: 
EDH-RSA-DES-CBC3-SHA & EDH-DSS-DES-CBC3-SHA.

https://www.openssl.org/docs/manmaster/apps/ciphers.html

So, for example:

SSL_DHE_DSS_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA    DHE-DSS-DES-CBC3-SHA (OpenSSL 1.1.0 
onwards, ignored by earlier versions)
SSL_DHE_DSS_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA    EDH-DSS-DES-CBC3-SHA (pre OpenSSL 1.1.0, 
accepted as an alias by OpenSSL 1.1.0)
SSL_DHE_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA    DHE-RSA-DES-CBC3-SHA (OpenSSL 1.1.0 
onwards, ignored by earlier versions)
SSL_DHE_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA    EDH-RSA-DES-CBC3-SHA (pre OpenSSL 1.1.0, 
accepted as an alias by OpenSSL 1.1.0)

TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA    DHE-DSS-DES-CBC3-SHA (OpenSSL 1.1.0 
onwards, ignored by earlier versions)
TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA    EDH-DSS-DES-CBC3-SHA (pre OpenSSL 1.1.0, 
accepted as an alias by OpenSSL 1.1.0)
TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA    DHE-RSA-DES-CBC3-SHA (OpenSSL 1.1.0 
onwards, ignored by earlier versions)
TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA    EDH-RSA-DES-CBC3-SHA (pre OpenSSL 1.1.0, 
accepted as an alias by OpenSSL 1.1.0)


The reason for asking is the old names are preferable for backwards 
compatibility with earlier versions of OpenSSL.

Thanks & Kind Regards,
