2016-12-27http -> https, and relocate homepage to https://80x24.org/dtas/
HTTPS allows some level of security(*) and we've actually supported it on 80x24.org for many months, now. So, point new readers to it. Moving away from hostname-based homepages will allow us to save on subjectAltName space (and bandwith) when negotiating an HTTPS connection. We'll also have an .onion mirror for Tor users, soon, too; in case we can't afford to pay ICANN in the future. (assuming TLS libraries don't have any more Heartblead-level bugs in them, CAs aren't compromised, MITM HTTPS stripping proxies don't get in your way, and your certificate bundle isn't compromised).

2015-12-15nodoc internal classes
DTAS does not expose any sort of public API for external users, so it will not be documented using RDoc. Currently all of our documentation is in plain-text or Markdown (only for manpages).
2015-12-13switch to exception-free non-blocking I/O
Ruby 2.3 will have `exception: false' support in socket-related classes. Additionally, 2.3 will implement the existing IO#*_nonblock methods more efficiently than before by avoiding the hash allocation necessary for keywords. For users on older Rubies, we'll continue supporting them with compatibility wrappers; even Ruby 1.9.3 users (for now).
