-------------------------+---------------------
 You are instructing users to configure their systems to fetch updates via
 http [1][2] - not https. This is no big deal for debian/ubuntu since repo
 metadata is signed via GPG, but you don't sign your RPM repo metadata
 #12871. So HTTPS is an actual security improvement over HTTP in that case.

 So it would be best to update the pages to point towards https instead of
 http.
