cjohnstonnewz2000: Bug 70700917:54
ubot4Launchpad bug 707009 in ubuntu-website "ubuntu.com does not support HTTP Secure (affects: 1) (heat: 258)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/70700917:54
newz2000:-/18:41
cjohnstonis that confirmed then?18:46
AlanBelllooks invalid to me19:11
AlanBellthe brochureware site does not need https19:12
AlanBellthe downloads are mirrored everywhere and https is not a part of what secures them19:12
AlanBellI suppose arguably the MD5SUM files might benefit from being authenticated with an HTTPS certificate19:13
mhall119AlanBell: I think it's more along the lines of "All websites should allow HTTPS connections" that Google is pussing19:34
mhall119pushing19:34
AlanBellthere is no harm in that19:35
AlanBellapart from a little additional CPU load on the server19:36
AlanBellall websites that allow users to authenticate should do https19:36
AlanBellbrochureware stuff is harder to justify19:36
AlanBellworth noting that https limits you to a single website per IP address (or a single one using https per IP address)19:37
mhall119true19:56
newz2000I agree, https is not needed for that site, and it would only hurt performance20:37
cjohnstonnewz2000: done.. ty20:39
newz2000thanks cjohnston20:39
