Initial release
Prerequisites
=============
This has been developed and tested for Python 2.6 and 2.7 with pyOpenSSL 0.13.
Note that proxy support is only available from Python 2.6.2 onwards. pyasn1 is
required for correct SSL verification with subjectAltNames.

``-c FILE, --certificate=FILE``
Certificate file - defaults to ``$HOME/credentials.pem``
``-k FILE, --private-key=FILE``
Private key file - defaults to the certificate file
``-t DIR, --ca-certificate-dir=DIR``
Trusted CA certificate file directory.
``-d, --debug``
Print debug information - this may be useful in solving problems with HTTP or
