Hi,

We have indeed removed HTTPS support from the server at the same time we changed it to use Wekzeug. It should be straightforward (a couple of lines) to add it back (as Werkzeug directly supports it) if it is really needed.

We have unfortunatly forgotten to remove the corresponding options from the configuration file and command-line parser (this one could qualify as a bug).

The reason we removed it is the following:

The server shipping with Werkzeug is clearly stated as non-production ready (for develoment only). Knowing this, it seems contradictory to let people use it with SSL enabled (you want to use SSL when opening connections to the world, and you want to do that when you're going into production).
