Guys, you both misunderstand the question in the same way for some reason. freemarker.org already redirects to freemarker.incubator.apache.org. That's exactly my problem. I expected to only have freemarker.org (or freemarker.incubator.apache.org to redirect to freemarker.org) behind which the content is served by an ASF server, until we graduate. For that, I have to ask [email protected], and I'm asking you, if I should ask them, or you prefer the current situation (i.e., having freemarker.incubator.apache.org as the canonical URL).
I haven't intended to change our 10+ year old and nice concise domain name for now, I have merely asked for the domain ownership to change. So I was surprised by this development. -- Thanks, Daniel Dekany Thursday, November 5, 2015, 6:11:35 AM, Jacopo Cappellato wrote: > I think that the project should keep it, and it should redirect to the > actual domain: > freemarker.org -->> freemarker.incubator.apache.org (now) freemarker.org -->> freemarker.apache.org (after graduation) > > We did something similar with OFBiz and its ofbiz.org domain. > > Jacopo > > > On Tue, Nov 3, 2015 at 11:57 PM, Daniel Dekany <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Infra has managed to set up the DNS (but some other issue has popped >> up, so now I suddenly can't update the site content, so we are still >> screwed... a different mater anyway).
