Task #2477
Updated by bmbouter almost 8 years ago
The project homepage is hosted by Github Pages[0] and uses the custom domain pulpproject.org. Github Pages does not support SSL with custom domains[1], but it does support SSL with default domains. SSL is still on which is worse because currently when you browse to https://pulpproject.org/ it looks scary. If we removed the custom domain configuration, the Pulp project site would be hosted at the url pulp.github.io. Both http and https would work and SSL would be perfectly happy. This would be configured as an organization pages site. We would keep the www.pulpproject.org and pulpproject.org redirects in place so those would continue to work. After this change users could also browse directly to pulp.github.io, but no matter how they arrived their browsers would read as pulp.github.io. pulpproject.org.
