I cannot since it is part of the "theme" we can however ask the sys admin
committee to do so :)

To ask report a bug here - https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo (if you look at the
list for website
<https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/query?status=assigned&status=new&status=reopened&component=WebSite&col=id&col=summary&col=component&col=status&col=type&col=priority&col=milestone&order=type>
you can see some examples )
