Huge win for them - will help push SSL/TLS on everything. Can't overstate how important this is for the web. Now to get the word out to everyone!

See a Let's Encrypt cert in action: https://helloworld.letsencrypt.org/ Nice work team!

I was unable to connect using a vendor-specific browser on an old Android 4 device. Is this a limitation of the LE cert, or a cipher suite issue with older browsers, or something else?

Really looking forward to spreading HTTPS far and wide.

From what I can tell, they're polishing their CA software (Boulder), and getting the rest of their infrastructure and policies ready for GA.
