Hey,

I think it would be valuable to take to a new place so that we can discuss 
future directions without restrictions and we can invite other interested 
parties. I know there have been others in the past that have expressed 
interest in this kind of "unified" API. So I'd welcome a new list for this 
effort.

I would be interested in starting out with laying some objectives of what we 
should do to make us all be on board and have similar focus. Like for example 
only caring about client-side TLS. My primary interest will be to have 
powerful and wide TLS support for libcurl and I think it will benefit from 
having more users to make more people familiar with the code and work on 
enhancements and bugfixes..

I'll be happy to then start out this effort by explaing how our current setup 
works, what the restrictions are and how the first steps towards an 
independent 'vtls' library could be made.
