# TODO: rewrite this role or make it more generic.
#
# Currently we reuse certificate role for web and mail servers, but they
# are actually quite different.
# * We can't start nginx without valid certificate, but can start postfix (and
# dovecot?).
# * We can serve acme challenge with nginx itself on renewal, but we need
# `--standalone` mode for mail server (or need to bring nginx).
# * It is undesirable to bring down nginx any time we are updating
# SSL certificates.
