Comment (by bpetty):

 Replying to [comment:13 samuelsidler]:
 > downloads.wordpress.org should be able to handle that traffic and if it
 can't, that's an additional problem that should be fixed.

 Feel free to ping @nacin about this.

 Also, if that's fixed, I'm all for both SSL transport *and* package
 signing.
