The OpenSolaris.org website was overhauled this week and almost all URL's are
now redirected to pages on the new site. It looks like update manager was
using one of these URL's that didn't get redirected as expected, and it's now
redirecting to the main page - so I've cc'ed the pkg-discuss & website-discuss
mailing lists, where the engineers on both sides can work out who needs to fix
what to make that functional again.
