Hmm, I think that "more sexy" is even worse argument against "www" than Luke's moral objections. > As pyjs.org is a site for technicials, but > also non-tecchies have a right to find the site, we should of course > also have a DNS entry for www.pyjs.org and redirect any requests to it > to http://pyjs.org (using RedirectPermanent). > > I believe to have read that CAR has already done this in the > configuration of the webserver.
