I'm for us serving them. Full transparency: shields.io says "no
tracking" but that doesn't mean they don't do _counting_. I also have
no interest in tracking, but a lot of interest in counting. (How many
distinct projects use this? How many people look at them?
Super-interesting!)

It seems like they don't really need to be dynamic and _could_ just be
static content we serve from https://getfedora.org/static/, right? That
way, we wouldn't need to stand up a new service or anything ongoing
except an update when we put out a new release.

That wouldn't allow per-project linking though. If you are doing
something dynamic, I'd suggest https://src.fedoraproject.org/ as a
target, and then include a README.md with instructions on how to dnf
install your package.


Anyway: can you file an infrastructure ticket for this? I doubt it will
be high priority, but on the other hand, it seems like something an
infrastructure apprentice could tackle.
