Are any other Opera users getting this error when attempting to go to https://git.wiki.kernel.org ?
Known bug in Opera, the problem lies in how it handles wild card certificates. It is claimed to be fixed in the next version by another user who has pushed the issue with Opera.
"Unable to complete secure transaction You tried to access the address https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Interfaces,_frontends,_and_tools, which is currently unavailable. Please make sure that the web address (URL) is correctly spelled and punctuated, then try reloading the page. Secure connection: fatal error (112) from server. https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Interfaces,_frontends,_and_tools Transmission failure. ....." I'm trying to figure out of this is a pure Opera problem or just a RedHat problem (ugh). (I'm also pretty darn sure that the server is up, as it loads up just fine in Firefox.....)
Pure Opera, it works fine from every other browser.
Unless lots of other people on the list are interested I don't see the point in splattering replies back to it until (unless?) something interesting comes up, so this may be a case when culling the CC list is ok...
