Jens Geyer updated THRIFT-3153:
-------------------------------
    Description: 
The Apache Feather logo looks broken in IE when looking at the public web site, 
but is shown correctly at the staging site. 

Links to check: 
 * https://thrift.apache.org/static/images/favicon.ico
 * http://thrift.staging.apache.org/static/images/favicon.ico 

A possible reason is the MIME type which the web server delivers to the 
browser. The staging site delivers the favicon.ico as {{image/x-icon}}, but the 
public website as {{image/vnd.microsoft.icon}}. Ironically, the latter seems 
not to be understand by IE, as [this SO posting seems to 
confirm|http://stackoverflow.com/a/28300054/499466].

*Conclusion:* 
We should change the MIME type to {{image/x-icon}} to match the staging site.
