Re: Fw: favicon.ico

I don't have any particular axe to grind, but putting a favicon.ico in the documentroot would avoid the error log starting to fill from the outset. 
Also, for someone who had just installed their first ever server, it would give them a clue how to get their own icon to appear in the browser. This question comes up regularly.

Wouldn't happen.  Take a look at the modern rendition of 'it worked'.

The arbitrary user installs a server, why should that be branded to
browsers as the ASF?  It is that person's server.

I suppose you could make a case for a transparent empty icon, though.
