I had the same thought – basically that you could use GitHub as a rough-and-ready Content Delivery Network (CDN). However, I did some investigation and it sounds as though hosting from A Google search on "github as cdn" comes up with GitHub as a CDN, which suggests using Google Pages as a CDN. That looks like it'd work better (it sets an HTTP Expires header that's 24 hours from now), but not sure if it's what you'd expect (or want) from a proper CDN. See below for HTTP headers from a call to raw.github.com, a call to the corresponding Github Pages URL, and (for comparison) a call to the Google CDN link for jQuery 1.8.0.

So in short, I'm going to close this issue. It's OK to let people grab the assets for themselves for the time being. |
@simonwhitaker One other possibility is serving it off Heroku (AWS East 2), using my nginx build pack. |
Editing the
index.html
file to serve the CSS off ofraw.github.com
would me people would not need the asset locally, but would mean that if Github goes down, so does the ribbon. Thoughts?The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
