I'm sure I'm not the first person to run into this. Have you made any progress in getting the cacert root certificate into major browsers? If not, could you put a link to an explanation of the SSL warning next to the login link and any other link into an SSLed page? For that matter, do you have a description of why you've chosen to confuse your visitors? http://savannah.gnu.org/tls/ doesn't explain the decision. Thanks, Jeffrey
