Sebb commented on COMMONSSITE-75:
---------------------------------
I don't think it's possible to fix this using redirects.
AFAIK, the files will have to be moved to the correct locations. [If so, that
needs careful planning as it affects lots of things.]
However, one could then redirect the long URLs back to the short URLs.
> Revert to short URLs for the component sites

> Key: COMMONSSITE-75
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMMONSSITE-75
> Project: Commons All
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Site
> Reporter: Emmanuel Bourg
>
> With the recent site update the components are now published at the URL:
> {code}http://commons.apache.org/(proper|sandbox|dormant)/commons-<componentname>{code}
> That doesn't make very friendly URLs. "commons" is displayed twice, in the
> subdomain and before the component name. We should at least have:
> {code}http://commons.apache.org/(proper|sandbox|dormant)/<componentname>{code}
> And for the components in Commons Proper we should drop "proper" from the
> path such that we are back with the same, short, friendly URLs:
> {code}http://commons.apache.org/<componentname>{code}
> or
> {code}http://commons.apache.org/(sandbox|dormant)/<componentname>{code}
