Public Beta: December 3, 2015

Let’s Encrypt will enter Public Beta on December 3, 2015. Once we’ve entered Public Beta our systems will be open to anyone who would like to request a certificate. There will no longer be a requirement to sign up and wait for an invitation. Our Limited Beta started on September 12, 2015. We’ve issued over 11,000 certificates since then, and this operational experience has given us confidence that our systems are ready for an open Public Beta.

I wonder how hard it is to get going as a NodeBB plugin...

It is good to hear that you are planning to make a plugin. In the mean time, for the ones that want to give it a try, here is a fine post about how to automate the certificate renewal : https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/howto-easy-cert-generation-and-renewal-with-nginx/3491

As it stands today, the node.js client for Let's Encrypt is quite outdated, so I'd prefer not to code against the ACME spec directly. Will wait until a suitable client for Node.js is created

I wrote up my install for Let's Encrypt when I did it last night.
