Technically it was, but you needed to manually visit the HTTPS site
(i.e. https://www.povray.org/). I just tweaked the site config so that
anyone landing on http://www.povray.org/community gets redirected to the
secure version. Hopefully this won't have any unintended side-effects as
there's several other server rules that apply to that path. If you see
anything misbehaving please let me know.
