I'm going to work on getting that merged to all relevant branches
either tonight or tomorrow, so yes, it will be included.
Congrats to everyone for getting this going. Is there a workaround
available for people behind the Great Firewall to log into projects in
languages other than those that are exempted? If so, what is the best way
for those individual users to contact Operations or whoever, outside of
IRC? I'm fairly certain some of those users may not want to have to
publicize their locations. I see mention of an email address: could that
be created before the change please?
Some projects are being left out of the initial rollout. Users that use
those projects as their home wiki will still log-in to HTTP by default and
will get a central auth cookie that will work for other projects as well.
Users who are logged in over HTTPS and feel that it is too slow for their
area or device can disable HTTPS redirection in their preferences to
continue using the site in HTTP mode.
