Hi, first of all: dear publicity team, thanks for handling this so very well. Even though these are very sad circumstances, I was proud and happy being part of Debian when I read Laura's mail here yesterday. Same goes for Ian's memorial event at FOSDEM. Thank you.

While I think this is a technically sound proposal how to do hotlinking, I'm
not sure I want to do that for the services I maintain, as a matter of
principle. Hotlinking to a different site is bad, as this leaks visitor
information to a different entitity. Granted, it's a different entity in the
same organisation, but still.
cheers,
