What do you mean when you say that we can't control the Amazon assets?
Rosanna has access to all the accounts.

We still get referral income from the affiliation link. Probably most
people have it saved in epiphany or something like that. I used to
look it up every time I wanted to use it from
https://www.gnome.org/friends/amazon/ but that doesn't exist any more
so I can't give the referral to GNOME now. Is it possible to have the
link available somewhere?
