Let's Encrypt does exist.

I watched a demo where they went from a vanilla apache install to an A scoring HTTPS site in sub 5 minutes at Libreplanet. It's a good idea to publicize the upcoming LARGE change.



I'm the person who gave that demo and I appreciate the compliment, but I'll readily admit that we can't yet issue publicly-trusted certificates to the public. So we aren't up and running in a way that a site could take advantage of.

On the other hand, our infrastructure, partnerships, and technology are very real. I hope they'll make the process just as easy as what you saw for many people soon.
