For SSL connection we use a self-signed certificate with the SHA1 fingerprint EB:B0:E1:E7:04:21:54:BB:2E:C5:D4:41:4A:83:16:C5:25:36:E6:D1 issued on Dec 15 14:25:53 2011 GMT. Please verify the validity of that certificate to make sure you connect to an unspoiled server. Sundiver IRC NEtworks does not use a certificate signed by any commercial certification authority, because such a certificate is not obtainable for free and we are community effort driven. If you want to donate a lifelong membership for a certificate for us, please let us know.
