This will not only profit Gridcoin BOINCers in terms of security, but every BOINC user.

Also publicity for us, since we care.

Relevant cryptocointalk thread: https://cryptocointalk.com/topic/49717-continued-boinc-project-ssl-discussion/

Several projects never responded to requests for SSL. It took me a couple hours to figure out how to implement SSL via certbot, so for an experienced BOINC admin it shouldn't be too difficult.
