On clicking the green padlock icon in Chromium when gerrit.wikimedia.org is open, I get

Your connection to gerrit.wikimedia.org is encrypted with obsolete cryptography.

The connection is encrypted and authenticated using AES_128_GCM and uses RSA as the key exchange mechanism.

Some Chrome version says "using an obsolete cipher suite".

Also, Firefox does not complain.

Even commercial Chrome complains about this, and it's a valid complaint. Our gerrit server runs Apache 2.2 and does not have forward secrecy. There are ongoing tickets about this: (see e.g. T55259)

@polybuildr I'm going to resolve this in favor of T55259: Add Forward Secrecy to all HTTPS sites, please reopen if need be!

Why decline it? It has been resolved! Apache 2.2 now supports ECDHE. See T55259#1448222.
