Thank you for the patch.

I do not know what content this was intended to point to, but we should not do Stable Release Updates of a package just to fix a broken link in the documentation - instead, particularly since we have control over the domain it points to, we should fix it so that the link is not a 404. Adding a task on the ubuntu-website project for this.

https://web.archive.org/web/20160815000000*/http://www.ubuntu.com/fan is no help here wrt the question of what the content is supposed to be, as it seems to find only 404s at that URL.

So I think the best path forward is:
- make https://www.ubuntu.com/fan a redirect to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FanNetworking
- update the ubuntu-fan package in the devel series so that the https://www.ubuntu.com/fan can eventually be deprecated

But I'll wait until I get feedback from the web team before making the second change.

I'm also subscribing Andy Whitcroft, who is listed as the maintainer of the ubuntu-fan package, for any additional context.

In the meantime, I am unsubscribing ubuntu-sponsors; based on the above there is currently nothing to be uploaded.
