I upvote using SSL on the forums.
IT MAKES SENSE
Any website which you enter informaiton such as passwords should be secure.

More and more websites are using it. Even yahoo.
The most recent website that could have any relevance here being linux mint.

They were hacked recently, their .iso images and forums. At this time 0% of their website used https.
Now the linux mint forums and site uses https. The blog is the only part that doesn't.

Changes to password policies

All forums users should change their passwords.
Beware of hacked ISOs if you downloaded Linux Mint on February 20th!
