* Foolscap, the only supported protocol in release before v1.19.
* HTTPS, new in v1.19.
By default HTTPS is disabled (this will change in
https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/4041). When HTTPS is enabled on
the server, the server transparently listens for both Foolscap and HTTP on the
same port. Clients can use either; by default they will only use Foolscap, but
when configured appropriately they will use HTTPS when possible (this will
change in https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/4041). At this time the
only limitations of HTTPS is that I2P is not supported, so any usage of I2P only
uses Foolscap.
