Connecting to CPANtesters.org with a URL such as:

#####
https://www.cpantesters.org/distro/E/Excel-Writer-XLSX.html
#####

... I get this warning:

#####
Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead

Firefox detected an issue and did not continue to www.cpantesters.org.
The website is either misconfigured or your computer clock is set to the
wrong time.

It’s likely the website’s certificate is expired, which prevents Firefox
from connecting securely. If you visit this site, attackers could try to
steal information like your passwords, emails, or credit card details.

I know that this was mentioned on a couple of IRC channels yesterday. Is
anyone working to resolve the problem?

Thank you very much.

Thanks for letting me know. I've fixed the validation problem Fastly was having that prevented it from auto-renewing the *.cpantesters.org cert. It's not renewed yet, but it says it's working on it.

Until it renews, you can still access the site without TLS on http://www.cpantesters.org/distro/E/Excel-Writer-XLSX.html
