[iaoa-infrastructure] Getting a certificate for secure.iaoa.iorg

[Frank Loebe]

Dear Valter,

thanks for following up on that, first of all! Let me further note beforehand that I'm not sure whether I understand these matters correctly.

In my view Oliver has purchased an SSL certificate from GoDaddy, in early June, as it seems. I can see that certificate in the GoDaddy account under "SSL Certificates". When I click on options there, I see a description as "Standard SSL (1 Year) (annual), New Account, Status: In progress", and above that there is an information area saying:

"This certificate is pending activation. Launch the Control Center to find and activate your certificate. If you have questions, please contact support at (480) 505-8877."

I haven't launched the Control Center, because it's not clear to me what happens and what would be required then.

Just to mention, though I'm not sure whether this contributes anything new to you. It may also completely miss the point, then please bear with me.

In any case, thanks for your efforts and best regards,
Frank
