I think it is clearly reasonable to serve the Hack Gallery pages off
of www.mit.edu, whether in the SIPB AFS cell or elsewhere.

Though the AFS maintainers are better suited to reply to this part, I
believe the proposal of the gallery providing a disk for the SIPB cell
and serving the gallery off of www.mit.edu makes the most sense.

Am I correct that there are no CGI scripts or other special
server-side features needed to serve the gallery?
