pearweb https

Hi Web Team:

I just noticed that the bug emails and the pearweb login link both
direct users to the http site.  This was silly back in the day.  Now
that PHP went through a compromise problem and has moved to https, our
not doing so is problematic.

I was putting together a patch and noticed that some things use the
PEAR_CHANNELNAME constant.  Is the bugs portion of the website really
being used by multiple parties?

Should I add another setting constant of whether to use https/http
and/or base it on DEVBOX, or do folks here have a better idea?  Or
better yet, does someone here with more knowledge of the system have
a moment to fix this, please, so I can work on the other community
projects already on my plate?

I see there's a test suite.  I'll adjust them as needed.

Anything else I should look out for?

Please cc me.

Thanks,

--Dan
