I think that this mainly boils down to how much Postgres JDBC wants to
get support here as some vendors can maintain oldest versions of
OpenSSL
for a long time. The extra code is not that much complicated by the
way, still it is true that HEAD is cleaner with its simplicity.
I'm unclear what this has to do with JDBC ? JDBC doesn't use OpenSSL
Alvaro ?
It's only indirectly related. It does matter on what servers JDBC
would be able to connect to (using SCRAM + channel binding). Only those
with tls-server-end-point will be able to use CB with JDBC, and that is,
as of today, only OpenSSL 1.0.2 or higher, which is not available on
some older distributions.
