Changelog
=========
+* :feature:`780 (1.18+)` (also :issue:`779`, and may help users affected by
+ :issue:`520`) Add an optional ``timeout`` parameter to
+ `Transport.start_client <paramiko.transport.Transport.start_client>` (and
+ feed it the value of the configured connection timeout when used within
+ `SSHClient <paramiko.client.SSHClient>`.) This helps prevent situations where
+ network connectivity isn't timing out, but the remote server is otherwise
+ unable to service the connection in a timely manner. Credit to
+ ``@sanseihappa``.
* :bug:`742` (also re: :issue:`559`) Catch ``AssertionError`` thrown by
Cryptography when attempting to load bad ECDSA keys, turning it into an
``SSHException``. This moves the behavior in line with other "bad keys"
