hi, I'm a developer at Mozilla and I have a patch
[1] that would switch
Firefox's Wikipedia search box from HTTP to HTTPS.
Who would be an appropriate technical contact at Wikimedia that I can
coordinate with? Is this a change Wikimedia would welcome? Or would the
increased SSL server load be an undue burden for Wikimedia? Just to be
clear, this change would only affect Firefox users who search Wikipedia
using Firefox's search box.
A few months ago, Mozilla switched Firefox 14 (currently in Beta) to use
Google's HTTPS search [2]. If I check in my Wikipedia patch soon, the change
would ride Firefox's Nightly, Aurora, and Beta release channels [3] and be
released to the general public in Firefox 16 (October 2012).
Please don't do so. HTTPS is a new service, and we haven't properly
load tested it yet. The first target for production load testing is
for logged-in users.
I'm not opposed to the change completely, but I'd prefer to let you
guys know when we're ready.
Thanks,
- Ryan
