Hi,
I do not really enjoy the way the mandatory-for-editors HTTPS was
introduced, mainly for time frame and communications (still) reasons,
although I’m globally really enthousiastic about a better security and
particularly the activation of HTTPS. Generally speaking I do _hope_ in
the future WM
First of all, I'm sorry If my tone was not appropriate (keep in mind I'm
not a native speaker).

The reason why is outlined in Ryan's blog post as well as his previous post and
the Wikipedia entry on https linked from that post.
The short answer is the current state is know
Just a question: Why imposing HTTPS ? Really, it will be damaging ...
"Wikipedia the encyclopedia that anyone (which has HTTPS) can edit (as
logged user)".
Sorry, HTTPS is nice, but I see no reason to force people using it, it
might be slow in certain country, it might be filtered, etc.
Thank you
