Well, I don't know whether Pascal has done additional changes offline, but in the latest pyjamas git there are still links to the two "Legacy" things: (sidebar.html, documentation.html) Legacy Mailing List - archived discussion group list at Google Groups. Legacy Repository - Previous Git repository, located at SourceForge. Are those references meant to be removed? (I have pushed to origin/master today again, but I left that untouched.) >> https://pyjs.org/pyjs.org/pyjamaslamson/librelist/app/data/archive/pyjamasdev/2010/10/22/queue/new/1287746463.M670011P28030Q38.c72b7a89e004c2583c1de5d0ab14584e >> -> could redirect to: http://lists.pyjs.org/mail/#pyjamasdev:2010:10:22 > > ah ha! good idea. hmm... are you any good at apache rewrite rules? That should be relatively easy to do. I'll stick Apache's URL Rewriting Guide [1][2] into my head, you leave me alone with my Apache on localhost for an hour, and we have that rule! It should be something like: (all in one line) RewriteRule ^pyjs.org/pyjamaslamson/librelist/app/data/archive/([a-z])/([0-9]{4})/([0-9]{2})/([0-9]{2})/queue/new/([0-9a-zA-Z.]+)$ http://lists.pyjs.org/mail/#$1:$2:$3:$4:$5 [R] All guessed and untested, of course.

Though the documentation [3] says no on this, I'd rather verify this in a live environment. Would also be interesting to see whether such a rule interfered with the functioning of the MailApp itself (AJAX requests via HTTP, haha).

So, should we link to Gmane from pyjs.org? I think this link here would be appropriate, because it gives infos to the list and all options available from Gmane: http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.pyjamas.devel Peter
