Any chance to get TLS encryption on your deployment of the BiGG models website? We would like to utilize your excellent API, but the lack of a secure connection poses both trust issues and practical problems - we can for example not make ajax calls directly from a browser client, as the insecure connection is rejected.

As you may know, Let's Encrypt offers free certificates and decent tools to automate installation and renewals.

I second this. Everything which is not running through secure connections is not usable for me in the context of individualized/personalized models due to risk of information leakage.

I agree that this should be done. I cannot commit to a timeline for it, but it's on our radar.

Hi all, some browser is starting to block the connection with the DB.
