Come on, the rate of new blends creation is not really high -- how many were there last year? Probably less then one. Does this really significantly increase your load? > In addition I think consistency between blends is a good idea for > various reasons. I would have no problem to have <blend>.debian.org pointing to /srv/blends.debian.org/<blend> for every blend. This would also keep the blends web infrastructure locally maintainable for the blends team, actually lowering the load for the main web team. And, again: <blend>.debian.org sounds for me like the canonical source for a blend for end users. However, this just popped up as an idea since our web guide (Kalles Design) recommends a subdomain specific main menu. If it appears really complicated, one can live without it. Best regards Ole
