Just to be perhaps clear(er): from here at least: ==== * thanks for the (objective) info on the adjusted, redirecting, upstream url. * (Imho, https-vs-http is (o/c) not 100% clear-cut: e.g. there are pros'n'cons of the overall current certificate-chain setup; e.g. ultimately, what parties are essentially the gatekeepers - who wants paid before you can play.) * (the 'awesome' was really a 'gentle' nudge re lang accuracy.) ==== rgds, akh -- -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
