CC'ing mobile-l@ to keep them in the loop

Things are progressing nicely on the login feature. Patrick tells me that
were looking good to finalize the functionality for a beta launch this
Thursday. We've completed the majority of the ops and development work to
allow posts, caching (disabled for logged in), etc for logins.

Were also making good progress on getting the wildcard subdomain certs. CT
has been working tirelessly to get an SSL vendor that will grant us a *.
m.wikipedia.org and a *.wikipedia.org cert. He's close in getting one
vendor to agree to it and were eager to get certs for testing.

I'd like to push logins regardless of wether we have certs or not to the
beta so that we can start testing. We'll want the certs in place before we
take logins into production of course.

Exciting times ahead.
