I agree with that.. BUT:

It *isn't* "letsencrypt", it's cause it's used in the wrong way.

There is a week limit. We should know and open certificates in the right
way ( one a week the first time, so, updates are one a week and we have
4 more in case of needs ).

Also, files.devuan.org, isn't hsts, it's a 443 closed: why no one open
it? i don't have access to the files machine, who fix it?

Of course I'm the one, and you are right. Except that the major issue
isn't cause of my assence, and on the more problematic machine ( files )
i don't even have access. The other one is "ci", that isn't exactly a
"public one". And the other is packages, ok, but the repository isn't to
be browsed by hands and in apt it works...

Anyway, ci is fixed now, and packages will be in few minutes. For files
i cannot do anything.

There is no "ssl account", if you can accessthe machine, you can manage
ssl certs. For DNS, it's the only one that i insist it remains where it
is. To have access, we must write something over the ovh api.

For the rest, it's just matter to fucking find the time to fix some
routing things: for packages for example, i will be happy to give you
ssh access... but there is no ssh installed on the machine. I access in
console. I have to install ssh ( ok it's just an apt-get ) and modify
routing/firewalling to let you in. And explain how it's done, dak is a
piece of shit.

Anyway, during this week i will give you access to all machines,
promises.
