I wish we could use something like that to link matching pages between
the docs versions to get consistent hits for the documentation searches?
Currently it is rather hard to find a relevant docs page via Google, and
the version of the docs it serves is random. Wonder if we could script
the template for the DOC* spaces with something like:
<link rel="canonical" href="http://cayenne.apache.org/doc/$pageName.htm" />
This would also solve the problem of google hits against
cwiki.apache.org. E.g.:
http://cwiki.apache.org/CAYDOC/documentation.html
Or more easily, we could ask Infra to mark our cwiki pages as not to be indexed
in robots.txt.
The other thing we can easily do is add a specific Google search to our docs
page. We'd need a separate template per doc version so we can limit the search
to that version. Something like the search here:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/
