Has the transition to Mediawiki happened yet or we still on Moin at the
moment?

Neither!

We've been working on the new MediaWiki instance for the last few days
and later today are going to do the final data import of anything that
was modified in Moin since Saturday.  At that point we'll send out
another announcement with useful URLs.  We are still on target for this
announcement to come out tonight UTC.

Any idea why it is redirecting to https by default? Seems overkill.

My best guess would be that we're using basic auth - therefore, no
opportunity to redrrect to https for a login page.

If I'm on an http:// page and I click RandomPage, it switches to https.
Can it be avoided?
