Alternatively, you can use a wildcard SSL certificate that will be
valid for all websites *.gnome.org. The only restriction is that all
web sites will need to be served as virtual hosts from the same
machine (window?), where the certificate is then placed.

Has anyone looked into this? A wilcard certificate need not be
extremely expensive, for example http://www.rapidssl.com/ offers
wildcard certificates for about $200.
