Changelog
=========
+* :bug:`298 major` Don't perform point validation on ECDSA keys in
+ ``known_hosts`` files, since a) this can cause significant slowdown when such
+ keys exist, and b) ``known_hosts`` files are implicitly trustworthy. Thanks
+ to Kieran Spear for catch & patch.
+
+ .. note::
+ This change bumps up the version requirement for the ``ecdsa`` library to
+ ``0.11``.
+
* :bug:`234 major` Lower logging levels for a few overly-noisy log messages
about secure channels. Thanks to David Pursehouse for noticing & contributing
the fix.
