[Twisted-Python] Announcing pyOpenSSL 0.14a3

Thanks for working on this!

Do you know if there are binary eggs for Windows Python 2.7 32bit for
criptography and cffi ?
This would make testing easier for people like me who don't have a Windows
development environment but have access to a default installation of
Windows.
A package containing OpenSSL as in previous pyOpenSSL distributions for
Windows would be of  great help.

I noticed that the new API no longer accepts unicode strings. As long as it
does not touches the OS filesystem this should be fine.

I checked the tests for Context.load_verify_locations() and I see that
there is no test for Unicode paths.
Linux filesystem access will accept any file name and works with UTF-8
encoded byte strings. I have tested this and it works.

But I remember that on Windows for paths containing unicode chars you
always need to pass the path as Unicode.
Maybe this is not a problem since filesystem access is handled by OpenSSL
and not by Python

--------

No problems with HTTPS support on Twisted 12.2, but I have only basic usage.

I have tested the new pyOpenSSL with my messy Implicit and Explicit FTPS
implementation and there was a single major problem with
Context.set_info_callback..

I have reported all problems in GitHub.

Thanks!
