Description

OutgoingNetworkTransport#connect() takes an sslContext parameter. This is unused by the transport implementations because SSL is implemented in the client as a wrapper over the transport. The 0-10 path of the client supplies null for this arg, but the 08/0-9/0-9-1 patch still creates and supplies one. The parameter should be removed to ensure consistency now and in the future.
