In order to fix the SSL test suite <https://bugs.python.org/issue25940>, I would like to modify the certificate used by https://self-signed.pythontest.net. So far I have a patch ready for the pythontestdotnet repository, but I want to know if I can just push to that repository, or if other steps are required. It should suffice to update that repo. I suppose the server might have to be kicked, too, as it's a cert change. Ping this thread if that doesn't work.

It seems to have worked, thanks. Not immediately, but after waiting ~20 minutes the certificate is now updated. I am working on an update for all branches 3.2+ and 2.7; I expect test_httplib will be broken until I fix it.

BTW <https://self-signed.pythontest.net/> is giving me a 403 Forbidden response, but it was doing this before I pushed my change, so I think it’s not my fault :)
