Small Webserver Tweaks

We have been making some small tweaks the last few weeks to our web infrastructure. The main objective was to give the major subsites a valid ssl certificate. Furthermore we have upgraded our webserver to include support for the new spdy protocol. This protocol is supposed to be faster than the dated HTTP/1.1 protocol and will probably be part of the future HTTP/2.0 standard. SPDY only works on https connections. SPDY is available on recent versions of Chrome/Chromium (including the Android browser), Firefox and Opera.

Furthermore, our webservices have been available for some time now on native IPv6. If you are one of the lucky ones out there to have IPv6, you can now visit us without having to touch IPv4. This includes an IPv6 enabled server on the gtanet irc network.

The domains with a valid ssl cert are:

https://(www.)multitheftauto.com

https://(www.)mtasa.com

https://forum.multitheftauto.com

https://forum.multitheftauto.com

https://wiki.multitheftauto.com

https://wiki.multitheftauto.com

https://bugs.multitheftauto.com

https://bugs.mtasa.com

https://community.multitheftauto.com

https://community.multitheftauto.com

Please note that not all third party content is available over https (the moddb pictures on the frontpage for example) or IPv6 (the twitter newsfeed for example). And we made some errors ourselves. Looks like community is also full of hardcoded http images. But good news on that, we have restarted work on the new community.

The support for SSL is the first step towards a new account system that will unite all your current MTA accounts (forums, wiki, mantis, community) that should be introduced before the summer.

If you feel one of our other subdomains could benefit from SSL protection, please put a motivated request in the comments.
