Universal SSL: Be just a bit more patient

Deployment of SSL certificates for 2 million websites by Cloudflare is taking longer than expected due to a high number of new sign-ups. The company now estimates the full deployment will be complete in approximately 48 hours from the announcement time (0700 UTC). During this provisioning process, users may encounter certificate mismatch errors when visiting their sites over HTTPS; however, these are normal and expected. To track progress, an updated alert is shown on login to Cloudflare, displaying enabled and pending sites. The company apologizes for the delay and aims to complete the process by Thursday, October 2 at 0700 UTC.
