Has anyone thought about supporting https on the Lazarus (and Free
Pascal) websites? Firefox, for example, is getting increasingly sniffy
about unprotected websites and for good reason.
It would also be useful to protect the svn feeds, if only to reduce the
risk of a man in the middle attack sneaking something nasty into the
source code.
Let's encrypt (https://letsencrypt.org/) seems to offer a very good free
service for https certificates where the objective is to protect the
connection and give reasonable confidence that you are talking to the
named website, so there does not seem to be a cost reason why https is
not supported.
