Bitcoin.org currently sends users to download the\nbitcoin-qt client from sourceforge. Sourceforge is encrypted and has a\ncertificate based on GeoTrust:\nhttps://www.geotrust.com/resources/repository/legal/\"\n\n(Currently (Dec. 7, 2013) bitcoin.org shows as 'not verified' and 'not\nencrypted' examining it in a cursory fashion w/ Chrome)\n\nNot sure how this would work, but it would be nice to see the content at\nbitcoin.org encrypted, of course, but also further decentralized? how many\nmirrors are there of bitcoin.org - not sure, but a few things that come to\nmind when thinking of this are Tahoe-LAFS and also .bit stuff (namecoin). \nThere are many ways to decentralize something but that is just something\nthat comes to mind.\n\nThis has been discussed at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=16312.0\n('Is Bitcoin.org a weakness of bitcoin?) in the past and see also this\nhttps://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=119652.0 which discusses mirroring\nof certain content\n\nSome things to think about.\n\n\u003e I would like to know what are your thoughts on moving bitcoin.org on a\n\u003e dedicated server with a SSL certificate?\n\u003e\n\u003e I am considering the idea more seriously, but I'd like some feedback\n\u003e before taking steps.\n\u003e\n\u003e Saïvann\n\u003e\n\u003e ------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\u003e Sponsored by Intel(R) XDK\n\u003e Develop, test and display web and hybrid apps with a single code base.\n\u003e Download it for free now!\n\u003e http://pubads.g.doubleclick.net/gampad/clk?id=111408631\u0026iu=/4140/ostg.clktrk\n\u003e _______________________________________________\n\u003e Bitcoin-development mailing list\n\u003e Bitcoin-development at lists.sourceforge.net\n\u003e https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bitcoin-development\n\u003e"}
