I used Emacs instead of sed -i, but yes that's a good way to start. However, 
there are some exceptions (both false positive and false negatives) so the 
result needs to be hand-checked. Among other things, I left the 
http://lists.gnu.org URLs alone for now because I was being cautious: while 
testing all this I found that those URLs are served by an older host that does 
not support TLS 1.1 or 1.2 yet (I have opened a trouble ticket for that...).
