Hi Ken,
I used https and it worked fine.
Fair enough; the links to the download area are all http, and the
release DOES have a GPG signature (which I suppose we don't
advertise), so I didn't think about it.
SHA-1 and SHA-256 might be what folks are more used to checking against.
The more encrypted traffic the better, was my thinking.
Well, okay, one thing ... I don't know if all of the mirrors support
https.
Ah, I see.
I just based the ordering on previous NEWS entries; if you want to
move it around that is fine with me. But please cherry-pick the
changes so they also end up on master.
Done that.
BTW, how did you compress the tar file? I was checking to see if it
could be made smaller, out of curiosity, and gzip 1.8-2 here could only
make the tar file bigger regardless of the -{1..9} option.
$ wc -c nmh-1.7-RC1.tar.gz ? | sed '$d' | sort -n
1386731 nmh-1.7-RC1.tar.gz
