HTTP links in the "HISTORY OF THE SOFTWARE" section of Doc/license.rst were converted to HTTPS. But there are other copies of this section in LICENSE and Mac/BuildScript/resources/License.rtf, and there is yet one related link in Misc/HISTORY. HTTP links were kept here. I though that we can upgrade these links because they are not part of third-party licenses and not part of the PSF license. But @gvanrossum said that "HISTORY OF THE SOFTWARE" is also important.
There are two ways to fix the discrepancy:
- Upgrade other occurrences of these HTTP links to HTTPS.
- Revert all or the part of upgrades of HTTP links to HTTPS in
