but please fix the following in documentation:

1) A typo in attribute name in changelog,
s/ sslEnableProtocols / sslEnabledProtocols /

2) Update documentation for "sslProtocol" attribute, in the same way
as it is in Tomcat 7,
to clarify its relation with sslEnabledProtocols.

It is a bit unusual that instead of documenting the two existing names
for this attribute ("sslProtocols", "protocols") we are introducing
the third one,  but I am OK with this, as this matches Tomcat 7.

I have not tested this new attribute, though.
Looking at JSSESocketFactory I see how the "protocols" attribute works,
but I am not sure how it handles incorrect values.

There was related bug report for Tomcat 7:
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54406

>From the code it looks that JSSESocketFactory.getEnabledProtocols(...)
silently swallows incorrect values without any logging and I think
it may result in insecure configuration.

Konstantin Kolinko
