I have two objections if I may: a) I think that the "http.debian.net" name is too generic and IMHO an abuse of the /intent/ of debian.net domains. Even though debian.net is being run as a first-come first-serve service, we are members of the same project and we shouldn't just pick catchy generic domains just because we can. (I had similar objections over e.g. git.d.n, among many others). b) You announced this to d-d-a and your blog/planet. However, I believe that there are readers of those media -esp. planet- that are not that much involved into Debian practices and may not know the distinction between debian.org & debian.net. I think people announcing such services publically should be careful and note that it's a personal service of theirs, rather than the project's. I'm not suggesting that you mislead people intentionally but rather that I would like you to be more explicit in the future -- or the present, e.g. in http.d.n's homepage). Thanks, Faidon P.S.
