Phobos documentation was restructured, and the new structure is good. However, changing the URLs for the documentation has left behind a few broken links, some of which I'm seeign in Google search results. For example, this page I just saw.

http://dlang.org/library/std/traits/ValueType.html

This is bad for two reasons.

1. For humans, a dead link means that something is just a little harder to find. 2. For Google and SEO, the site might lose some ranking in searcch results, as popular pages are now probably considered dead completely by Google.

We sould track down the old links and redirect to the new documentation pages.

I also noticed that we are hosting two different versions of the Phobos documentation, one in one format for 2.066, and another in another format for 2.067. See these two pages for example.

http://dlang.org/library/std/traits.html
http://dlang.org/phobos/std_traits.html

So again, a series of redirects is needed. If someone has control over Webmaster Tools, that would be a good way to find a list of 404s to sort out.
