Update: We have rolled out a partial fix for this issue. We generated a new intermediate certificate with the same name/key but an updated validity window and pushed it out to users via Normandy (this should be most users). Users who have Normandy on should see their add-ons start working over the next few hours. We are continuing to work on packaging up the new certificate for users who have Normandy disabled.

What bothers me is the fact that everyone seems to be accepting the usage of these newspeakish romantically sounding euphemisms that are completely opaque about the purpose of things they stand for. "Normandy"... What is this - a place, a sort of champagne, a hotel or the internal name of some freaking area51 document?..

Like, "In order to disable Normandy, uncheck Vaduz, Monterrey, Vologda and select Newcastle in the Xinjang drop-down menu - we'll ship Bronx with next update".

P.S. Keep flagging, I'll repost, no problem.
