[ARIN-consult] Consultation on ACSP 2018.3

[Owen DeLong]

I agree with Bill Herrin. Yes to 1,2,3, 5. No to 4, 6.

(No to HSTS and no to Long term goal to push programmatic access to HTTPS)

If they chose to go to the secure site, being redirected to the insecure site does not seem like a good idea.
