Dear LiveCoders, I was just reading an article about SSL certificates for websites, and came across this statement:
"The maximum validity period for SSL/TLS certificates is being significantly reduced to just 47 days by 2029. This change aims to enhance security and reduce risks associated with compromised certificates.” I don’t know about you, but I have several websites that I have to renew the SSL/TLS certificates for every year. It is always a PITA, and a big time waster as far as I am concerned. It looks to me like the big guys just want to force all of us into forking over more money more often to them just so we can stay in business. Most of the members on their forum are the big SSL certification organizations. Just imagine having to renew all of your website certificates seven times a year instead of just once every year! I think LiveCode should be help us to deal with this issue as it will effect all LiveCode servers which is where many of us have been concentrating our efforts lately as the App stores have proved to be a great disappointment for a lot of developers. Please feel free to share this information with your friends, and let us know what you think about it too!
