It's possible for linuxaudio.org but not for all the subdomains. the
linuxaudio.org server is a shared server that hosts projects of a
variety of organizations and people. root@email-addr-hidden can't enforce
the usage of SSL for all users, it's a decision the users have to take.

That happens to be a subdomain root@email-addr-hidden does not maintain,
you will have to ask the owner of that subdomain if implementing HTTPS
is an option. If the owner is OK with that root@email-addr-hidden can
implement it.
