A lot of you may be aware of the Let's Encrypt project,which aims to provide free SSL certificates. We are currently working on bringing support for Let's Encrypt into our web control panels, to make it easy for you to get a free cert for your domain automatically. Let's Encrypt went into public beta yesterday.
As always with being an early adopter, there are still a few flies in the mayonnaise on that - but we hope to have this available to all of our hosting customers by Jan. 1.
