You can transform the HTTPS download
URLhttps://github.com/downloads/harningt/luajson/luajson-1.3.tar.gz
==> to HTTP ==>http://cloud.github.com/downloads/harningt/luajson/luajson-1.3.tar.gz
to avoid SSL - which makes for convenient LuaRocks usage w/o
SSLsupport.  Basically  change https -> http and add a "cloud." in
frontof github.com
