FYI, this has been widely covered in a lot of mainstream press. (but not
necessarily well. Some call OpenSSL a protocol)

Ah. I'm still reading emails from Monday on the list. So I must have just missed
out on the SSL cert change. I did hear about the Heartbleed issue (actually had a few
users here at the office come to me very concerned about what they heard on the news).
Glad to hear that the certs were reissued to take care of that.
There is now a blog post with a timeline overview of the actions taken:
