Changelog
=========
+* :bug:`-` (partial application of :issue:`983`) Move ``sha1`` above the
+ now-arguably-broken ``md5`` in the list of preferred MAC algorithms, as an
+ incremental security improvement for users whose target systems offer both.
+ Credit: Pierce Lopez.
+* :bug:`667` The RC4/arcfour family of ciphers has been broken since version
+ 2.0; but since the algorithm is now known to be completely insecure, we are
+ opting to remove support outright instead of fixing it. Thanks to Alex Gaynor
+ for catch & patch.
+* :feature:`857` Allow `SSHClient.set_missing_host_key_policy
+ <paramiko.client.SSHClient.set_missing_host_key_policy>` to accept policy
+ classes _or_ instances, instead of only instances, thus fixing a
+ long-standing gotcha for unaware users.
* :feature:`951` Add support for ECDH key exchange (kex), specifically the
algorithms ``ecdh-sha2-nistp256``, ``ecdh-sha2-nistp384``, and
``ecdh-sha2-nistp521``. Thanks to Shashank Veerapaneni for the patch.
