Hi all,
Libravatar announced this morning they are shutting down their service
on 2018 September 1; this affects applications that use Libravatar, such
as Pagure, Tahrir (Fedora Badges), and possibly others.

In their post, they mentioned they do not know of another FOSS image
hosting service like Libravatar. If hosting images ourselves is not
desired, Gravatar is the best viable alternative I know of.
Since the Infrastructure hackathon is next week, I thought this might be
timely to mention, since it affects most Fedora applications that use a
profile picture for contributors.
I will try and file RFEs on Pagure and Tahrir today, but other affected
services don't immediately come to mind. Feel free to file some too if
there are more.
