What does this mean? Why can it not be done?

Hi Gavin,

Sorry I didn’t see this until now. I’m sure this can be done, when we went over the Contributor Spotlight page and I wanted to go to jenkins.io (top left corner) it doesn’t link to jenkins.io. Kris Stern has created a PR for this. Hope that helps.
