By the way, Paul doesn't work here anymore (he got a job at UC
Berkeley).  We have a new sysadmin <address@hidden> who has replaced him.

I don't think we should support dynamic content right now.

There is of course the security issue.  Savannah and www.gnu.org are
both very important servers and I'm not sure it's worth the risk.

Probably more importantly, they are both pretty heavily loaded at the
moment, and I'm not sure we should be adding any more work for them.
