the majority of the mirrors have openssl(87/100), but not all, here is the
list of mirrors without openssl:
at2.php.net
cn2.php.net
dk.php.net
de2.php.net
in2.php.net
ie.php.net
jp.php.net
pa.php.net
pt2.php.net
md.php.net
ro2.php.net
si2.php.net
tw.php.net
Currently posttohost is used for the following scenarios:
- posting user note submissions to master (
http://master.php.net/entry/user-note.php)
- posting mailing list subscriptions to master (
http://master.php.net/entry/subscribe.php)
- posting event submissions to master (
http://master.php.net/entry/event.php)
- posting the account request submissions to master (
http://master.php.net/entry/svn-account.php)
Sending the last one over http really worries me, so at least we should
force that to happen over https (either adding ssl to all mirrors, or
restricting/redirecting the account request to the mirrors with openssl).
What do you think?
