[zeromq-dev] PUB/SUB and TLS/SSL

[André Caron]

I prefer Curve to SSL/TLS because it's simpler to use and administrate
overall: no need to purchase certificates or, worse, become your own CA.
However, if you really must use SSL/TLS because some higher power is
imposing it on you, you may want to look at SSLTunnel[1], which looks
designed for this kind of scenario.
