Ok, I work with Enterprise IT and I don't think about privacy all that much because at my school nothing can (even SSL) can prevent us from monitoring the users gear. In code4libs sitchuatation I do see a need for SSL and would be more than happy to contribute to the cost of the cert. for the implementation I highly recommend DigiCert's SSL Plus option, it provides a wildcard, *. example.com, and example.com (this is what we use at my school to secure our exchange server). Sorry for my lapse in judgement, I forgot completely about the privacy side of things only focusing on security!
