Hi, Chris!

Being involved in moderation of one of our mailing lists, I suspect that
some amount of spam is caused by our default web page,
when it is de-facto used as the front page of a third-party web site.

That is, ASF is wrongly interpreted as an owner of that web site.

My thoughts were:
a) Replace it with a simple static page that just says "It works" or similar.
b) Make content dynamic, so that the current content is shown to
localhost clients only,
and show the "simple" page for anyone else.

An example of "a)" is Apache HTTPD:

https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/httpd/httpd/branches/2.4.x/docs/docroot/index.html?revision=1200966&view=markup
https://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=105393
Oct 2004 (19 years, 8 months ago)

My preference is for "a)".

Maybe move the old shiny "root" page to the examples web application.

Best regards,
Konstantin Kolinko
