Browsers don't really care whether the URL is long > or short and neither do mice :-) I find these -1 reasons are funny. =) I can repeat the counter-arguments that shorter URLs are better not only in address bars, but also for posting links and navigating search results, but the point is: - this configuration change is a one-time, standard, common, not-a-hack solution for a traditional problem, that MoinMoin is designed to resolve, and it is a small price of admin's time to make a small group of people, who also care about Python wiki feel a little bit more happy Common - you don't really think that the proposed redirection setup is complicated, do you? =) If some questions are left unanswered or the answers are vague - just repeat them, so we can clarify and remove the confusion. -- anatoly t.
