I am very sorry I am missing this! It sounds very interesting I wanted to listen and learn, but I’ having a very tough time connecting to the OFTC webchat. It seems slow or something. I finally got through but then it told me I needed to do a bunch of administrative stuff, so am currently locked out.
However, I noticed this a few weeks ago but haven’t seen it mentioned here. https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/if-when-will-le-support-onion-addresses/...
See post #85.
Back to slogging through trying to get into #tor-meeting.

Hi Everyone,
The current UX situation around HTTPS-enabled onionsites is not the best: Tor Browser shows security warning splash screens and icons in scenarios that do not warrant them. On top of that, the only way for your onion site to not show these warnings is by getting an EV cert which is only practical if you have the $$$.
alecmuffet's SOOC proposal ( https://github.com/alecmuffett/onion-dv-certificate-proposal/blob/master/tex... ) does seem to fix these UX problems for us. Though the proposal is still incomplete, we can make forward progress with a prototype implementation as the certificate specification is fully fleshed out.
We'll be talking about this tomorrow during the Sponsor 27 meeting tomorrow on Tuesday 10th May @ 1500UTC in #tor-meeting. Please feel free to come by if you wish to discuss.
best, -Richard
