test suite https cert expired

[SignpostMarv]

As mentioned in #311, the cert has failed to renew.

to clarify; the cert expired on the 6th November, but most ACME setups wouldn't be leaving things to the last minute for autorenewal.

https://test.activitypub.rocks/ did indeed expire. @cwebber , is that something you're familiar with? This is not a site controlled by W3C as far as I can tell.

Slowly creeping up on a year old issue now :s

If it's not feasible to get the cert sorted, is it feasible to have a w3c-owned testsuite launched somewhere?

@SignpostMarv , the issue is that W3C doesn't control https://test.activitypub.rocks/ as far as I know. For us to rehost again the test suite somewhere else isn't high on my list to be honest. But I'll also admit that I'm not versed enough in activity pub to comprehend the harm here. Let me launch additional inquiry around to see if I can find someone who can look into this :(

based on #311, looks like @cwebber owns https://test.activitypub.rocks/ . that issue had some discussion on how to stand up another instance if necessary. the source is probably https://gitlab.com/dustyweb/pubstrate/tree/master/pubstrate/aptestsuite .

I'm going to close this in favour of #337 so we track it in one place.
