Hi, I'm new to using Lynx, and I noticed that it uses OpenSSL and/or GnuTLS for SSL. Both of these libraries have interfaces allowing validation of certificates using DANE as an alternative to relying on certificate authorities. Since none of the major browsers have DANE support yet, this would be quite a defining feature to have in Lynx, one that'd be really cool for you to have. Some examples of websites that support it: * most Debian sites * Tor Project You shouldn't have to parse TLSA records yourself; OpenSSL and GnuTLS provide high-level interfaces. Thanks for your consideration
