Yes. Changing all the http://www.w3.org/ URIs to https://www.w3.org URIs
is a good idea. But as a practical matter, I assume lots of folks have
copies of the test suite, perhaps not even clones of the repo but just
copies, that contain the old references.

Given that https: is about security, it seems relatively safe to allow
both http:// and https:// versions of the 404 page should just directly
return 404.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
