I don't think this should be a hard requirement. One problem is where
to include why there is no homepage. I don't think there is an
appropriate place for that information, other than in the RFS itself,
or when debexpo gets deployed there could be a field about that.
Sponsors could then de-prioritise packages without a Homepage or an
explanation of why there is not one.

I don't think this should be a hard requirement either. On the other
hand when debexpo gets deployed and mentors.d.n is more useful for
sponsors I'll certainly be de-prioritising such packages.

scp/rsync your public_html from gluck.d.o -> yourpc -> ravel.d.o.
