Ladies and Gentlemen, the rumors of my death have been wildly exaggerated. However, while I’ve been quiet the folks in the Development Department here at cPanel hasn’t slowed down one bit, and there’s a lot to talk about. Since our last update in October<\/a> we have released two major versions of our software, and 3 mobile apps. Version 62 has made it all the way to the STABLE tier, version 64 is headed to CURRENT as soon as next week. Let’s catch up!<\/div>\n With this being our 20 year celebration, we want this conference to be something incredibly special. This year’s planning team has renewed its focus on integration and development, we are excited to put together the best conference yet! We have opened the call for talk submissions to everyone in the industry, and have already started accepting some! In addition to the free ticket and speaker swag bag, speakers will also get a coupon for 50% off one additional ticket.<\/p>\nCelebrating 20 Years!<\/a><\/u><\/h2>\n

\nIn Version 68 new installs of cPanel & WHM will be configured to only offer TLS 1.2 support, though upgrades from previous versions of cPanel & WHM will not be effected. The older, obsolete, and insecure TLS 1.0 can still be enabled manually by system administrators.\u00a0This means that any older browsers will not work.<\/span> You can see a list of browsers and their support of TLS version 1.2 at https:\/\/www.ssllabs.com\/ssltest\/clients.html<\/a>. Any automation systems that connect<\/span> via TLS\/SSL will need tested and updated to work with TLS 1.2. Of note: while you will still be able to enable the older TLS protocol, with version 68 and later we will not support it or accept bug reports specific to TLS 1.0 and older.<\/li>\n
\nThe XML-like output of our API (often called the XML API) is already officially deprecated, and cPanel & WHM Version 70 will be the last version to support this output. Integrators and API users will want to begin switching to use the JSON output of the API now. The XLM-like format has long caused problems for integrators and developers because it is not valid XML, and we find that removing it completely will help reduce that.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\nComing up next<\/u><\/h2>\n
