Thanks for your proposal. Since this needs to work with the Apache
configuration on the server side, I've mailed the OSUOSL folks to ask
them if this is going to work. You are in Cc to this e-mail.

Regarding your other patch crunching and resizing the PNG files, it
didn't make it to the list because of the size of the patch. However,
while I understand the crunching, I do not understand why you
arbitrarily reduced the size of the pictures by 60%. Could you explain
the reasoning behind this?

Thanks!

Thomas
