 The website has it just in the lefthand column in its entry page.

 But ... you said it yourself, it's a redirect to a different page, and
that one isn't hosted by the same organization, or am I wrong? That part
isn't part of that service, it's part of a different service.

 When one uses the form from that page they will end up in a
packages.d.o page that has the according service and site sponsor
listed, I'm not really sure if this is really that big deal? Putting the
sponsor information somewhere into that page might work out, but then
you have to keep it current in two different services which is rather
error prone - and personally I don't really see the big benefit?

 Thanks,
