Some of you, notably I think users of MS Internet Explorer, may be happy to learn that since yesterday, the web server of the R mailing lists https://stat.ethz.ch/ now runs an ``official'' / trusted certificate as opposed to the inofficial one ("Math deparment ETH") that we have had for years instead.
In particular, this should make access to the (first but by far not only) mailing list archives more convenient to you, e.g. for this month, for R-help, https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2007-August/thread.html In parallel, the R Foundation is getting (buying) certificates for several R-project.org servers, notably also the subversion (R source) server, and these will hopefully be put in place as well with the next few weeks.
