FYI: I've made some tweaks to the website us.metamath.org to harden it further against attacks. We formerly had a "D" grade, now it is "A", on this site:
https://securityheaders.com/?q=us.metamath.org&followRedirects=on

To be fair, some of the hardening changes aren't relevant to our current configuration, because of other hardening steps I took earlier. Still,  they don't hurt, and I'm trying to make the site a challenge to subvert.

Thank you David!
(Have we found a source to at least finance Linode? What about our
plan to make donations possible?)

The source currently is me.

I'm intentionally doing things to keep the costs low ($60/year website + a few dollars for registration).
For the moment I view this as a way for me to contribute to the group.

In the longer term I'd like to set up a "Metamath Association" so things can continue
without being dependent on any one person. But let's worry about that later.
