That assumes that those at risk are many, or the cost of these defaults are small. We can now discuss (without any real data, I think) just how many Windows users of Emacs are at risk, and how convenient or inconvenient is to assume distributing the GnuTLS binary vs. pointing the users to an alternative download place. And, just to put things in perspective, until now Emacs had no GnuTLS support and we haven't seen a flood of network-related security reports from Windows users. =C2=A0 =C2=A0 Juanma
