:: Developer Documentation Request Request Type: Correction Gecko Version: unspecified Technical Contact: :: Details We have various pages that discuss SSL, such as https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Introduction_to_SSL, the NSS documentation, and then docs related to HTTPS. These pages need to be reviewed and updated as needed given that service workers will require TLS. annevk also suggests that we may want to start referring to it as TLS (HTTPS). Covering TLS and HSTS at least would help be ready for service workers.

OpSec maintains TLS guidelines on wikimo: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/Server_Side_TLS We usually store our docs on mana for internal pages, and wikimo for public pages. What is the difference between wikimo and mdn for such pages? I don't have a preference as to where it should be published, as long as it is in a single location.
MDN is where we document any developer documentation that's Web-facing. That should, IMO, include TLS. So this should migrate over.

That's where we keep developer documentation for technologies that developers can take advantage of (where "developers" include Web devs, add-don devs, and Firefox devs).

My only issue is that the current location is very well-known. That page became one of the most referenced doc among sysadmins and security people to configure TLS servers. Moving it over to MDN will break the referencing, so at the moment I don't think it's worth moving it over to MDN.

Let's close this then. No point in migrating this.
