[Python-Dev] Sniffing passwords from PyPI using insecure connection

[anatoly techtonik]

Hi,

I'd like to escalate http://bugs.python.org/issue12226 : 'use secured
channel for uploading packages to pypi' to be shipped with next Python
2.6+
This will prevent pydotorg password sniffing when submitting packages
through public networks (such as hotels).
