+  `1.2` to force TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.2 connections, respectively
+* The `check_http` `-S`/`--ssl` option now allows for specifying the desired
+  protocol with a `+` suffix to also accept newer versions
+* Let `check_http` check HTTPS web sites via proxies
+* `check_http`: add timeout to performance data as max value
+* `check_http`: report certificate expiry date in UTC

+* New `check_snmp` `-N` option to specify SNMPv3 context name
+* Let `check_smtp`'s `-D` option imply `-S`
+* Let `check_smtp`'s `-e` option match against the full SMTP response
