Dr. Volker,

Two security issues have been reported in GnuTLS:

https://www.gnutls.org/security.html#GNUTLS-SA-2016-2
https://www.gnutls.org/security.html#GNUTLS-SA-2016-3

At this point, I think the best way to proceed would be to:

1) release 3.3.24 with the patch for the latter, then;
2) update to 3.4.15, which involves an ABI break.

nettle is also overdue for an update (it's also blocking an update to
filezilla); getting that in after 3.3.24 and prior to 3.4 would be best.

Ping? More vulnerabilities have been announced, so we need to revise the above to 3.3.26 and 3.5.9.
