The page is mostly up to date.

I'd suggest to follow the "Medium term goals" from the page. That means
to choose the backend from one of the following libraries (in the order
of preference).
     1. NSS
     2. GNUTLS (with nettle as crypto backend, but nettle never used
        directly by applications)
     3. OpenSSL
     4. libgcrypt

No matter how far down the wrong road you've gone, turn back.
