5298,https atom service document doesn't point to https collections,rubys,westi,"It turns out that specifying https://<your_blog_here>.wordpress.com/wp-app.php doesn't actually get you a secure connection... all it does it retrieves a relatively static service document securely.  Unfortunately, that document points you to unsecured collections and category documents.

The fix is relatively straightforward, and attached as a patch.  But there is a second problem in that users of RSD will never discover the secure connection (unlike xml-rpc, supporting https is a requirement for AtomPub).  This is also included in the patch.

Finally, there is a small issue with the RSD in that Atom doesn't have a notion of a ""blogID"", and the [http://archipelago.phrasewise.com/display?page=oldsite/1330.html definition of RSD] indicates that blogID should be """" in such circumstances.  That, too, is included in the patch.",defect (bug),closed,normal,2.5,General,2.3.1,normal,fixed,has-patch,josephscott rubys
