I noticed that by default your mirror is designated as *http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/archlinux <http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/archlinux>* in my package manager configuration file but it is also available from *https://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/archlinux <http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/archlinux>* with a valid (EV) SSL certificate. May I suggest you advertise your mirror as HTTPS to the Arch Linux maintainers? I've CC'd arch-mirrors@archlinux.org in on this email. I suspect this is who you'll need to email to make this happen. Thanks. -- –Luke

Given the mirror supports HTTPS and AARNet is listed in HTTPSEverywhere I've taken the liberty to change our listed URL. If you don't want this please tell me. Florian
Is HTTPS useful ? I thought the packages were checked against gpg signatures anyway ?
