support HTTPS

Closed this issue · 2 comments

Malwine, could you comment on why supporting HTTPS has suddenly become very important?

CloudFlare is probably the best option:

Whilst GitHub Pages doesn't ordinarily support SSL on custom domains, CloudFlare's Universal SSL allows your users to access your site over SSL

The free plan should satisfy our requirements.

Just because HTTPS is cool and also because modern browsers will now try per default to access www.clojurebridge.org like thishttps://clojurebridge.org.

If clojurebridge.org is only supporting http://clojurebridge.org then modern browsers will give a warning that the website is not secure and you have to add an exception which normal user would not do. So they won't see our website.
