Is Mike's view that having a contractor in to fix
the SSL problem would cost
too much generally shared? The SSL does impact on the credibility of the
fundraiser, which raised £1M last time and one would hope that number would
go up in future. As a percentage of one year's take, what is "too much"?
The decision isn't between hiring a contractor to fix the SSL and not
fixing it. The decision is between hiring a contractor to fix the SSL
and hiring a general technical employee to, among other things, fix
the SSL. A general tech person may have to spend some time reading up
on SSL before they can fix it, but they'll still be able to fix it.
