+Subject: [PATCH] cups/tls-gnutls.c: Use always GNUTLS_SHUT_WR
+
+The current mode for `gnutls_bye()` in client use cases strictly
+follows TLS v1.2 standard, which in this particular part says:
+
+```
+Unless some other fatal alert has been transmitted, each party is
+required to send a close_notify alert before closing the write
+side of the connection.  The other party MUST respond with a
+close_notify alert of its own and close down the connection immediately,
+discarding any pending writes.  It is not required for the initiator
+of the close to wait for the responding close_notify alert before
+closing the read side of the connection.
+```
+
+and waits for the other side of TLS connection to confirm the close.
+
+Unfortunately it can undesired for reasons:
+- we support switching of TLS versions in CUPS, and this mode strictly
+  follows TLS v1.2 - so for older version this behavior is not expected
+  and can cause delays
+- even some TLS v1.2 implementations (like Windows Server 2016) don't
+  comply TLS v1.2 behavior even if it says it does - in that case,
+  encrypted printing takes 30s till HTTP timeout is reached, because the
+  other side didn't send confirmation
+- AFAIU openssl's SSL_shutdown() doesn't make this TLS v1.2 difference,
+  so we could end up with two TLS implementations in CUPS which will
+  behave differently
+
+Since the standard defines that waiting for confirmation is not required
+and due the problems above, I would propose using GNUTLS_SHUT_WR mode
+regardless of HTTP mode.
