Hello.

In light of the recently announced vulnerability in the SSLv3 protocol
(POODLE - believed to affect all implementations of the standard),
lug.org.uk are disabling SSLv3 on their servers.  For most people this
should not be an issue, but if you use a very old web browser you may
find that you can no-longer access our website using https.

Those of you running your LUG website on servers other than lug.org.uk
should ensure that SSLv3 is disabled on those servers.  For more detail

You can test your server(s) at https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/index.html

Thanks

Gavin Westwood, on behalf of lug.org.uk
