GUADEC organizers need to enable a SSL certificate for the 
registration process.

In order to do that, they require a working alias for 
hostmaster guadec org, where RapidSSL would send an email to
verify the domain and receive the confirmation later.   You
can point it to sysadmin or any other account.  It is required
to have the alias before to request the certificate and the people
behind must be aware of the request.

I wonder if RapidSSL[1] would be the best solution. StartSSL[2] offers
SSL certificates Level 1 for free and it could be handled by the
sysadmin and/or infrastructure team.  Also, the StartSSL might 
enabled us to issue personal certificates.

Nevertheless, it is important to have SSL enabled no matter
which one is the best solution.

If there is any problem with this request or if you have a better idea
to do it, please let know.
