Hoe and rubyforge and all that

[Tom Copeland]

Hi all -

We've started using HTTPS to make RubyForge logins more secure.
However, this will probably hose up the various utilities that folks are
using to automate releases - like hoe, and I think Ara's got one, and
there may be others. Should we turn off HTTPS for a few days to let
those utilities catch up? Or just leave it on?

Comments/questions welcome,

Thanks,

Tom

Offer both for a period of time until any reasonable project has had
time to update and push out a new release.

Ah, right you are, and it only required some minor code changes. OK,
now there's a Log In/HTTPS link up top there. I'll remove the code next
Monday, say.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Comments/questions welcome,

Is this why my SVN updates/commits to RubyForge have failed the last few
days? Do I need to specify a new URL for the projects?

Hi Nic -

Hm, no, we just added mod_ssl today, and that shouldn't affect svn
commits. Hm... contact me offlist ([email protected]) and maybe we can
sort out what the problem might be...
