_ssl.c:316: Invalid SSL protocol variant specified.

Getting the following when trying to negotiate with python-jenkins with https requests:
File "<console>", line 1, in <module>

py", line 302, in jenkins_open
    raise JenkinsException('Error in request: %s' % (e.reason))
JenkinsException: Error in request: _ssl.c:316: Invalid SSL protocol variant specified.

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

I believe python-jenkins does not support passing SSL context yet. There are a few patchs to add support for that is in review[1]. There are also a few patches to skip SSL as well. Both sets have been dormant for a while. Feel free to fix/update and push up for review if you like.
