Who is going to pay for the extra IP dedicated for this? Maybe we should put a
price tag on uses for port 443: if you want to use it, pay $10 per month to
the Qt Project Hosting Foundation and we'll enable your account to use it
(IPv6-only should be free or cheaper).
Then you can take it up with the Finance department instead to explain why
that cost is necessary. Better, charge it to the IT department's cost centre.
Really.
I understand that convincing the IT departments of some companies to change
their policies is like banging the head against the wall. But we must try. I
really do not like your defeatism.
