I've submitted an HSTS preload list entry request to Google for
inclusion in their list:

https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/sts
https://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome/trunk/src/net/http/transport_security_state_static.json

Firefox bases its list on Google's, so hopefully wiki.python.org
will end up there as well in a few weeks:
