the easiest option is to install httplib2 - either in a virtualenv or globally - from the externals/ directory. This directory contains an updated cacerts.txt, which included the root certificate required for editing on WMF servers.

To do this:

cd externals/httplib2

python setup.py install

If you use pwb.py, you should not get an error message at all. If you /do/ get one, please let me know.

Best,
