Subject: Re: https
Joel,
I don't know what "It doesn't" is supposed to mean, but visiting
https://www.ietf.org/* today with firefox it is still reporting that the
certificate expired yesterday.

How I interpreted the reply is that some mailing list archives can be accessed
without using TLS, typically by going to the Working Group page and selecting
the archive from there; v6ops is such a one.
But as I pointed out yesterday, if you go to the ietf mailing list pages, such
as
http://www.ietf.org/list/nonwg.html
then that contains some 250 or more html anchors with a scheme of https:, and
that is the only way I know of accessing some of the archives (I was looking for
the IESG comments on the approval of an I-D, comments which I had missed at
announce time).
I tried editing the URI to remove the 's' but the IETF website puts it back
again:-(

Given the volume of discussion about the topic starting yesterday when
the problem started one could easily make a case for "it's still broken"
being a significant "issue."
cc'ing the address listed as "Report Website Errors" on the home page.

Besides all the usual hassle of TLS, today the certificate is reported by
IE as
expired, which sort of sums it up.
