The support for HTTP/0.9 will be switched to disabled by default in 6 months, in the September 2019 release (possibly called curl 7.68.0). + +## PolarSSL + +The polarssl TLS library has not had an update in over three years. The last +release was done on [January 7 +2016](https://tls.mbed.org/tech-updates/releases). This library has been +superceded by the mbedTLS library, which is the current incarnation of +PolarSSL. curl has supported mbedTLS since 2015. + +It seems unlikely that this library is a good choice for users to get proper +TLS security and support today and at the same time there are plenty of good +and updated alternatives. + +I consider it likely that the existing users of curl + polarssl out there are +stuck on old curl versions and when they eventually manage to update curl they +should also be able to update their TLS library. + +### State + +In the curl 7.66.0 release (July 17, 2019) the ability to build with this TLS +backend is removed from the configure script. The code remains and can be +built and used going forward, but it has to be manually enabled in a build (or +the configure removal reverted). + +### Removal + +The support for PolarSSL and all code for it will be completely removed from +the curl code base six months after it ships disabled in configure in a +release.
