This issue came up again, still I see no one has resolved it.. Is it 
any wonder everyone uses Sourceforge? How many months/years until 
someone sets up the SSL cert from an athorised root agency will it be?

On http://savannah.gnu.org/ click "Login". See attached error. Close 
browser and never return to the site. How many visitors does GNU loose 
because the HTTPS SSL cert is not authenticated as valid by a root 
cert in browsers?

So again.. I offer to pay for the valid SSL cert, just tell me who to 
forward it on to. Or tell me when you've paid for it and I will donate 
the same amount.

Cheers, Jon
