+1. I generally take care of adjusting to relative urls. I've been using "/de/" for example, or "stylesheets/styles.css" depending. There the start of some scripts in ooo/ooo-site/trunk/tools/: urlrewrite.sh urlrewrite.sed These should be switched to a version of: committers/tools/fix_files.pl > > At some point, it should be fixed so http://ooo-site.apache.org redirects to > http://openoffice.org (even though the pages are actually created at > you-know-where, that can be made to work without looping [;<). No, not that way. The only maneuver for www.openoffice.org is to change the IP address. Joe already has the httpd configuration of ooo-site.apache.org with an alias of www.openoffice.org. > It can also be arranged that http://ooo-site.apache.org/es/ is served up as > http://es.openoffice.org, etc. That is the tricky part. Redirects/rewrites are a potential issue for the subdomains: foo.openoffice.org/bar to www.openoffice.org/foo/bar. I'm hoping for face time next week to work out the best strategy for this.
