If you were to contribute a paid-for wildcard SSL certificate the warning would of course go away. That's what you get for using free self-signed certificates. > My impression is that this project is kind of dead anyway.

If I were you, I would just post reminders from time to time, which always worked well for me.

I think it's not a process problem (anymore), but simply a workforce and communication problem. The core team is as small as 3 persons working on mc in their spare time plus a number of less frequent contributors. The core team is focused on architectural improvements and most urgent bugs, tickets come next... Worse even it's substantially harder for most of them to communicate in English, so tickets that require a lot of communication naturally get put off till later. I used to help with that in the past, but now I really can't make any more time for that, and some will even argue that I wasn't any good at it anyways. -- Sincerely yours, Yury V.
