The limitations are both legal and for usage. Both sites clearly state these are for use by an individual for their own personal usage. Non-persons (like incorporated NFP) are not entitiled to get/use the free versions.
Even if we
did
get one, it would be for
one
site. Currently there are at least three separate site SSLs (bugs, garage, and another I can't recall). Wild-card certificates are different than single-site certificates, and just about every certificate authority
will
charge for those, even for individual use.
In the end, it will boil down to how urgent the need is vs the cost. Again, the cost of keeping a server up will dwarf the cost of getting an SSL certificate. (Servers cost more than 5 cents a day to keep running, in general.) But that's something to be decided later. If/when the Board gets the domain, servers, and/or enough funding to make any of the rest of this happen.
