Even if we try to hold off for now, we're eventually going to need 
certificates for fedoraproject.org, preferably by a CA that is already 
recognized by the more common browsers.

I would personally like to see us get a certificate for "fedoraproject.org" 
(no subdomain), make "www.fedoraproject.org" a CNAME to "fedoraproject.org", 
and put all content that we need under SSL within 
the "https://fedoraproject.org/" namespace, using reverse proxies if 
necessary, and not on subdomains.  People with a great deal of experience 
with DNS and SSL should understand my technical reasons for this, but it's 
also the cheaper way to go.
