Guys, what is it and why for? =)

[SalahAdDin]

Where did you find it?

[fannigurt]

jet/static/jet/js/src/layout-updaters/branding.js:29

$(document).ready(function() {
$('#branding').each(function() {
new BrandingUpdater($(this)).run();
});
if ($('body.login').length != 0) {
$('').attr('src', '//jet.geex-arts.com/ping.gif');
}
});

seem like it's safely

but if I've secured my admin panel link - it's unsecured with such request =)

[SalahAdDin]

It is a point, i don't know which is his utility.

[fannigurt]

huh? what do you mean?

[SalahAdDin]

yep, the utility for this gif.

[tityrus]

It's to ping home, probably done by the author for the purpose of statistics, to know how many projects are using Django Jet, and also to keep some control on who is paying or not paying for the commercial license.

Anyway, I don't think it should be there.

[fannigurt]

clear. we can close this issue

[SalahAdDin]

@jorisvd How do you knotw this?

Thanks!

[tityrus]

Correction, I don't know that for sure.
However, what other purpose could it have?

[fannigurt]

I can just comment it.
I don't want to have external GET from my secure address of the admin panel.
Hope the author won't be against such step.

I think this ping.gif should be removed.
