    Description

      When trying to view pages like https://wiki.qt-project.org/Main_Page, I get a login prompt from my browser, requiring my to login with my "Account from bugreports.qt.nokia.com". Viewing pages with HTTP instead of HTTPS works fine.

      Many e-mail conversation on the mailing lists and elsewhere link to the HTTPS pages, so people can get the impressions that the Qt wiki pages are locked down.
      I suggest making viewing wiki pages without requiring a login in HTTPS possible, that would lower the entry barrier for casual observers.

      At least I could quite confused by this.
