I meant to post this when it happened, and I think I forgot.  :-}

The SSL Root cert that underlies Let's Encrypt's root expired on 30-Sept,
and the new root that underlies it is not in the Root Certificate Package of
some still pretty widely deployed OS versions, including OS/X <10.12.1.

Lots of people are getting their certs from Let's these days, including
Wikipedia.

So if you've gotten any reports from the field that people can't access
{websites,your websites} it's worth looking into whether this is why.
