Well, in this case I probably *can* persuade hosting to make an exception for "https everywhere" policy. But this would create more work for several people for a rather small benefit. Older versions busybox already _had_ https support, but it required a small external helper tool. Suspecting that people would not know and/or bother installing that tool, I added internal TLS support. But I can't go back in time and retroactively insert it in old versions. _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list busybox@busybox.net http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/busybox
