Beware that gambaswiki.org server actually hosts:

- The wiki

- The farm server

- The bugtracker

At the moment it is hosted on a server of my boss' company, so it is not 
urgent to make the move. The website is more prioritary in my opinion.

As for the https problem, I just need a certificate to give my colleague 
that manages the hosts.
