| 1 | Hi, |
| 2 | |
| 3 | while I invested some time in the past updating thirdpartymirrors to add |
| 4 | HTTPS where possible too, I see no point in dropping non-HTTPS mirrors: |
| 5 | |
| 6 | Just make sure that HTTPS mirrors are listed first. |
| 7 | |
| 8 | From security point of view, we don't get anything from HTTPS because we |
| 9 | maintain and validate checksums for distfiles and thirdpartymirrors file |
| 10 | is only used for distfiles. |
