HTTPS at W3C.

Hello, www-tag!

I just copy/pasted Mixed Content's last call URL (
http://www.w3.org/TR/mixed-content/) into an email, and I'm sad that it
can't be served over HTTPS.

Note that the WHATWG has moved to HTTPS/HSTS (https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/).
IETF supports HTTPS (
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-west-origin-cookies-00). W3C is the only
major standards body that I care about that actively redirects from HTTPS
to HTTP. We're setting a bad example.

It would be wonderful if we could fix that. Based on earlier conversations
with Wendy (CC'd), it sounds like there was progress on this topic earlier
in the year. Perhaps folks on this list could either share details of a
migration plan, or even solid timelines? :)

Thanks!
