This is huge news.  (It used to silently exit!)  And it's nice that error reporting is steadily improving.

We should start trying to run Twisted's tests under `trial -j` - in aggregate, this could save a *lot* of time between development environments and our extensive CI system.

This is twisted.internet.ssl.optionsForClientTLS for those of you who are not maintaining Twisted's innards :-).

Thanks for another great release everyone!
