* Update some URLsPaul Eggert2019-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This mostly changes http: to https: in URLs. It also updates some URLs that have moved, removes some URLs that no longer work, recommends against using procmail (procmail.org no longer works), and removes some mentions of the no-longer-existing Gmane, LPF and VTW. It doesn't update all URLs, just the ones I had time for. * GNUmakefile (help): * admin/admin.el (manual-doctype-string): * admin/charsets/Makefile.in (${charsetdir}/ALTERNATIVNYJ.map): * admin/charsets/mapconv: * lisp/net/soap-client.el (soap-create-envelope): * lisp/org/org.el (org-doi-server-url): * lisp/textmodes/bibtex.el (bibtex-generate-url-list): Prefer https: to http: un URLs.

* Prefer HTTPS to HTTP for gnu.orgPaul Eggert2017-10-01
| | | | | | | | | This fixes some URLs I omitted from my previous pass, notably those in lists.gnu.org. Although lists.gnu.org does not yet support TLS 1.1, TLS 1.0 is better than nothing. * lisp/erc/erc.el (erc-official-location): * lisp/mail/emacsbug.el (report-emacs-bug): Use https:, not http:.
* Prefer HTTPS to FTP and HTTP in documentationPaul Eggert2017-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Most of this change is to boilerplate commentary such as license URLs. This change was prompted by ftp://ftp.gnu.org's going-away party, planned for November. Change these FTP URLs to https://ftp.gnu.org instead. Make similar changes for URLs to other organizations moving away from FTP. Also, change HTTP to HTTPS for URLs to gnu.org and fsf.org when this works, as this will further help defend against man-in-the-middle attacks (for this part I omitted the MS-DOS and MS-Windows sources and the test tarballs to keep the workload down). HTTPS is not fully working to lists.gnu.org so I left those URLs alone for now.
