No I never had an older http sitemap. The word was that they were useless and even a Google exec insinuated they were worthless so I never bothered.
When I search in "G" my site, site:domain .com I get 31k results. So they indexed my whole site, or the sitemap with the https pages. It's just not giving me the traffic yet.
