------------------------------------

Hi Lena,

I assigned the ticket to you. I hope this is ok. Iirc you have already been in 
contact with the folks art wordpress once. SO maybe you still have a contact 
and can ask them about the described issue.

Thanks and Cheers

Andy

> The Gravity ads auto-inserted in blog.couchdb.org by wordpress.com are really 
> spammy, and detract from the professionality of the project. As the content 
> is not controlled by us, they may even break the code of conduct (e.g. right 
> now I'm looking at "50 hottest celebs!" under the photo of a woman with 
> cleavage). This is why I've classified it as a bug, not merely an improvement.
> Some options:
> a - try and break the ads with custom CSS
> b - ask wordpress.com to please turn them off, we are an non-profit project, 
> etc.
> c - self-host a wordpress instance.
> I would try b first. Since it involves approaching Wordpress in the project's 
> name, suggestions welcome.
