Eventually we're going to have to decide on a consistant behaviour. For instance... - mapserver.osgeo.org is not hooked up - gdal.osgeo.org (and mapguide, mapbender, ???) are the projects' main sites - geotools.osgeo.org redirects to www.osgeo.org/geotools I _think_ my preference would be that projectname.osgeo.org always returns or redirects to the main page for the project (depending on whether it's hosted on OSGeo servers or not), while www.osgeo.org/projectname <http://www.osgeo.org/projectname> gives you a quick summary (info sheet) on the project. So, for this case, www.osgeo.org/mapserver <http://www.osgeo.org/mapserver> continues to return the info sheet, while mapserver.osgeo.org redirects to mapserver.gis.umn.edu <http://www.mapserver.gis.umn.edu> Jason
