Hi,

I think providing https mirror will make the hosting a lot difficult,
since it may use up a lot of CPU time and other server resources.
Packages of public mirrors is public anyway, and I see no usefulness
of encrypting them. apt-transport-https is useful when somebody is
hosting private APT repository with some packages that don't want to
be cached, etc.
