This is part of a longstanding general plan to move to
https for our
services. You can track (most of) those items here:
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/board/162/ although the
specific task
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T128587 is not listed
there.
In particular you might look at a couple of the tasks under 'Big Picture',
i.e.
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T104681 HTTPS Plans (tracking/high
level info) and
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T75953 RFC: MediaWiki HTTPS policy
(though that doesn't directly address dumps).

Can you give us some justification for this
change? It's not like when
downloading dumps you would actually leak some sensitive data...

We plan to make this change on April 4 (this
coming Monday), redirecting
plain http access to https.
A reminder that our dumps can also be found on our mirror sites, for
those
who may have restricted https access.
