+      The handling of SSL in the nginx module has been cleaned up, renaming
+      the misnomed <literal>enableSSL</literal> to <literal>onlySSL</literal>
+      which reflects its original intention. This is not to be used with the
+      already existing <literal>forceSSL</literal> which creates a second
+      non-SSL virtual host redirecting to the SSL virtual host. This by
+      chance had worked earlier due to specific implementation details. In
+      case you had specified both please remove the <literal>enableSSL</literal>
+      option to keep the previous behaviour.
+    </para>
+    <para>
+      Another <literal>addSSL</literal> option has been introduced to configure
+      both a non-SSL virtual host and an SSL virtual host.

+      Options to configure <literal>resolver</literal>s and

+      The <literal>port</literal> option has been replaced by a more generic
+      <literal>listen</literal> option which makes it possible to specify
+      multiple addresses, ports and SSL configs dependant on the new SSL
+      handling mentioned above.

+      Two new options have been added to the installer loader, in addition
+      to the default having changed. The kernel log verbosity has been lowered
+      to the upstream default for the default options, in order to not spam
+      the console when e.g. joining a network.

+      This therefore leads to adding a new <literal>debug</literal> option
