What

Fixes five stale links in README.md:

Location Before After
Scrutinizer badge http://img.shields.io/scrutinizer/… https://img.shields.io/scrutinizer/…
PyPI badge http://img.shields.io/pypi/v/Doorstop.svg https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/Doorstop.svg
Overview text http://alternativeto.net/software/doorstop/ https://alternativeto.net/software/doorstop/
Sample link http://doorstop-dev.github.io/doorstop/ https://doorstop-dev.github.io/doorstop/
Poetry link https://poetry.eustace.io/ https://python-poetry.org/

Why

  • The img.shields.io, alternativeto.net, and GitHub Pages URLs all redirect HTTP → HTTPS anyway; serving the canonical HTTPS URL avoids the redirect and removes mixed-content warnings.
  • The Poetry project website moved from poetry.eustace.io to python-poetry.org in 2020. poetry.eustace.io now redirects, but the README should point to the current, maintained domain so readers land in the right place directly.

How verified

Checked each URL manually; all resolve correctly over HTTPS.

- Upgrade four http:// badge/page URLs to https://
- Update Poetry project URL from retired poetry.eustace.io to python-poetry.org
