The wiki now does not make reference to https.

(modified the SiteRoot object configuration not to use https:)

Out of curiosity yesterday, I navigated up from Bibledit to http://www.nongnu.org/
This redirects to http://savannah.nongnu.org/

Then if I click on the More link to this page
http://savannah.gnu.org/maintenance/WhyChooseSavannah

my browser reported that the website has Security Certificate Errors.

IE7 reacted gracefully, but Firefox 3.0.15 actually crashed, sending an error report to Mozilla!

I think this is the culprit, within the above page source,

    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
          href="https://savannah.gnu.org/maintenance/FrontPage/stylesheet" />
    <title>Maintenance Docs WhyChooseSavannah</title>

Using SSL for a stylesheet in a non-secure page is really weird!

You may wish to get your hosting service provider to look into this.



Best regards,
