Description

The web server handles thousands of 404 requests every day for apple-touch-icon-precomposed.png and apple-touch-icon.png. We can avoid that by creating a proper Apple touch icon (or icons, if we want to offer multiple sizes) and adding a <link> tag referring to it. Then MaxCDN will cache it and our web server won't have to handle so many requests.

This applies to all of our hosts. www, guide, svn, trac, lists.

Looks like it's not just iOS that requests Apple touch icons anymore; all of the requests I see right now are coming from macOS Sierra.

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
