Yes, it is a tragedy on its own. Since your warning, I had checked the site once or twice per day, without success. The last archived copy is from February 1st, 2026:

There are some SSL online checkers for the validity of certificates. I tried three of them, all agreeing that the certificate is valid from April 3rd, 2023 to March 31st, 2033:

https://www.sslshopper.com/ssl-checker. ... mintz.com/
https://app.trackssl.com/users/sign_up? ... ntz.com%2F
  • The first SSL online checker says Vendor signed: No ← SSL is not trusted and Hostname: Doesn't Match.
  • The second SSL online checker says There was an unknown error verifying the certificate: 18 (self-signed certificate) and None of the common names in the certificate match the name that was entered (www.stmintz.com). You may receive an error when accessing this site in a web browser.
  • The third SSL online checker says Valid hostname: No.
It is the time of the CCC heroes to getting back the site again. ;-)
