Background: cURL continues to support AmiSSL
Daniel Stenberg, initiator and main developer of cURL, a command line tool for transferring data with URLs, reported in a recent blog post that the cURL project has a long tradition of supporting a number of different third-party libraries: by May 2025, thirteen different TLS libraries were supported.
As a large number of these libraries are supported, it is now possible to raise the bar and gradually increase the requirements for them. The current TLS version 1.3 was already introduced in August 2018. This means that in future, cURL will only support TLS libraries that use the current TLS 1.3 standard (in its modern versions).
BearSSL" and "Secure Transport" have thus been removed from the list of supported backends, but the AmiSSL encryption protocol maintained for Amiga computers (amiga-news.de reported) is still supported.
