A sad loss of a great man.
It would be a lovely gesture if Let's Encrypt added a special field to their issued certificates in honour of Peter's memory, much like many web servers around the globe send the "X-Clacks-Overhead: GNU Terry Pratchett" HTTP header.

- schoen 4y agoI thought of the same idea myself, but (as someone who worked on Let's Encrypt with Peter) I don't think Let's Encrypt would be willing to make this choice for all of its subscribers, and I think Peter himself would place a higher priority on web sites getting encrypted than on the web sites paying tribute to him (and increasing the network traffic associated with a TLS handshake might provide a slight disincentive for some sites). It's a super-sweet idea, though!
