The old CKAN data portal has been retired. The new data portal is https://data.bloomington.in.gov
Other: The B Clear Open Data portal should follow the best practice of referencing source URLs over the HTTPS protocol. For example on this page: https://data.bloomington.in.gov/dataset/bloomington-city-council-districts-gis-data/resource/9b0438ae-fdba-44f3-a14a-b39fd63912d0 The link to the actual resource is not secured. It is served over plaintext `http`: http://bloomington.in.gov/geoserver/publicgis/ows?service=WFS&version=1.1.0&request=GetFeature&typeName=publicgis:CityCouncilDistricts&outputFormat=shape-zip This has practical implications for data users. Esri's ArcGIS Online product only supports loading URLS over 'https', so the current URLs don't work directly with Esri. A test confirmed that the URLs are valid if "http" is simply replaced with "https" in the returned URLs. Hopefully this means that this fix amounts to small configuration change to start referencing the secure versions of the resource URLs. Thanks.
Most tickets of this type should be closed within 2 days, although some cases may be longer. 1068 days have already passed.

Mark, Thank you for pointing this out. We are migrating to Socrata as our data portal platform. The services will be rest end points that will be secure https. Not sure of the exact timeline for release but we are actively working on it. As we create rest services, we can update BClear to use those.
