+ <div class="panel-body"><p>Replicant's website uses a certificate issued by the community-driven certificate authority <a href="//www.cacert.org/">CAcert</a>. You get the warning because CAcert's root certificate is not trusted by your browser. It should however be possible to add the CAcert root certificate to the certificates your browser or your operating system trusts. Replicant will use certificates issued by <a href="https://letsencrypt.org/">Let's Encrypt</a> as soon as possible which will solve this issue. Replicant's website is currently hosted by <a href="https://osuosl.org/">OSU Open Source Lab</a> and their infrastructure does not yet support Let's Encrypt.</p></div>
