+Bugfix: Removed 'OCM_OCM_PROVIDER_AUTHORIZER_VERIFY_REQUEST_HOSTNAME' setting
+
+The config option 'OCM_OCM_PROVIDER_AUTHORIZER_VERIFY_REQUEST_HOSTNAME' was
+removed from the OCM service. The additional security provided by this setting
+is somewhat questionable and only provided in very specific setups.
+
+We are not going through the normal deprecation process for this setting, as it
+was never really working anyway. If you have this setting in your configuration,
+it will be ignored. You can safely remove it.
