Hi everyone,

I've stumbled across a curious fact: the version 1.7.x update RDF [1]
uses HTTP for the XPI package download link, whereas all the previous
versions (update.rdf, that is) seem to use HTTP.

I've crawled the discussion group and the bug tracker and couldn't
find anything related. Any special reason behind that? If not, I'd
suggest getting back to HTTP for coherence and I see no advantage in
performing the download with the extra (SSL) overhead, although I
admit using HTTPS has helped me working around proxy issues at work in
the past (not that this is supposed to happen, I guess it was due to
broken or too restrict network environment configurations).

Cheers,
 Helder
