----------------------------------------------

Followed the convention of only starting progress (and ownership) when a shepherd is found. Still, I have spent a ton of time on this and would still like to chime in/own this.

> Currently all the messages that flow through the Mesos cluster are unencrypted making it possible for intruders to intercept and potentially control your task. We plan to add encryption support by adding SSL/TLS support to libprocess, the low-level communication library that Mesos uses for all network communication between Mesos components.
> As a first step, we should replace the hand-coded http code in libprocess with a standard library, ensuring that any mesos custom code like routing remains. Then, transition to https should be easier.
