      While looking at https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8190312 we noticed that:
      The javadoc tool recommends http: instead of https:
      https://docs.oracle.com/javase/9/tools/javadoc.htm#JSWOR-GUID-9D532574-1CDB-4D30-99F3-A308DCAEE55F
      (and http: doesn't actually work with the jdk9 javadoc)

      and the same applies to the javadoc.1 files in the jdk10 mercurial repo.

      ... and of course the internet industry is moving towards https: as the default
