Hey there
Most source files contain the "default" copyright-header (also build by a
script in devtools/copyright_header.py), which points out that the MIT
license can be found in the COPYING file or at
http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php.
However, the provided link is 1) using http where it could use https, 2)
resulting in a redirect (https://opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php)
anyway.
I am strongly in favor of using https where possible (I guess there are
many other non-ssl links in the code base, but lets tackle the easier ones
first).
I propose that I
1) create a issue on github,
2) `sed -i` the relevant links,
3) create a PR on github,
4) come back to the mailing list.
This change would affect a few hundred files I guess.
A question remaining is this change would require a
copyright-year-extension (to 2018), too.
An example header can be seen e.g. here
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/a9a49e6e7e8df13d80a6dc3245ce7ef041942e9b/src/consensus/merkle.cpp#L3
I'd be happy about quick feedback - do not know the culture here, yet.
Have fun
Felix

I am a bit disappointed about the feedback (just received one off-list ;)
), but understand now that this mailing list is protocol-only discussions.
So - sorry for that. Anybody interested can follow progress here:

Thanks, Felix
