Comment 3 for bug 866886

Zorba is actually able to make https requests by default on Windows now, I'm nearly sure. I believe this may have been done internally by de-activating curl's default "verify peer certificates" behaviour. There is a separate bug, bug 867136, which tracks making this a runtime option instead of a compile-time option.

Rodolfo, if you can verify that this is working by default and that my diagnosis about curl is correct, then you can resolve this bug.
