| | Feature | I-1214 | Removed `msys-nodejs` RPM from the Momentum bundle, to be replaced with the 3rd-party `nodejs` package. Node.js LTS 24+ must be installed separately from the system or a vendor repository. | | ||
| | Feature | I-1216 | Added the [log_hires_timestamp](/momentum/4/config/ref-log-hires-timestamp) option to emit microsecond-resolution timestamps in the `mainlog`, `bouncelog`, `rejectlog`, `paniclog`, custom logs, chunk logs, and message generation logs, preserving event ordering when reading multiple log files together. | | ||
| | Feature | I-1225 | Added optional `--meta` / `--header` filtering to the [`reroute queue`](/momentum/4/console-commands/reroute-queue#reroute_queue_selective) console command, to selectively move queued messages by metadata or RFC822 header match. | | ||
| | Enhancement | I-1276 | The supported range of OpenSSL covers 1.1.1 (RHEL 8) through the 3.5.x series — all pre-1.1.1 compatibility code has been retired. No configuration changes are required — the removed options are silently ignored if still present. | |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Can we also list the deprecated/now-removed config options so customers can get an overview of any potential config changes they might have to make to remove them as they review the changelog?

Low Risk
Documentation-only changes with no runtime or configuration code; reviewers should verify technical accuracy against the actual 5.3.0 product behavior.
Overview
Documents OpenSSL API modernization (I-1276) for Momentum 5.3.0: supported OpenSSL is 1.1.1 through 3.5.x, with obsolete TLS settings called out across reference pages and the 5.3.0 changelog.
Removed or obsolete in 5.3.0 (silently ignored if left in config):
ssl_lock_method,crypto_lock_method, and thetls rekeyconsole command; summary tables now show these as 4.0 through 5.2 only. Dedicated pages add prominent removal notes and point operators to remove staleecelerity.confentries.TLS behavior docs:
tls_protocolsexplains that legacy tokens (SSLv2/SSLv3/TLSv1.0/TLSv1.1) may still parse but often do not negotiate under modern OpenSSL and OS crypto policy; example config and+ALLsemantics are updated (e.g. typical RHEL 8 → TLS 1.2/1.3).tlsv13_ciphersuitesbroadens the stated OpenSSL range and switches CLI examples fromopenssl11toopenssl.Version-dependent:
crypto_engineis documented as ineffective on OpenSSL 3.x (ENGINE API removed); still relevant on 1.1.1 builds.Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit a228fe4. Bugbot is set up for automated code reviews on this repo. Configure here.
