What I see is that the "Homepage" link URL registered for the scm
project is to:

  http://swissnet.ai.mit.edu/~jaffer/SCM.html 

Which is returning a 301 Moved Permanently to:

  http://groups.csail.mit.edu/mac~jaffer/SCM.html

Which is returning a 403 Forbidden error.  That looks like an error
because of the "mac~jaffer" which one would think is an error.  The
obvious typo-fix to remove the "mac" part:

  http://groups.csail.mit.edu/~jaffer/SCM.html

That works.  Therefore I presume that that is the desired link for the
Homepage link.  Does that make sense?

The http://swissnet.ai.mit.edu/~jaffer/SCM.html Homepage link can be
changed on Savannah to http://groups.csail.mit.edu/~jaffer/SCM.html
using the process I described in the previous mail if that is desired.
I think that is the simplest answer.  No redirects needed at this point.

If not then the 301 Moved Permanently redirect is something happening
at swissnet.ai.mit.edu and there isn't anything we can do about that
here.  One would need to contact the swissnet.ai.mit.edu admins and
ask them to fix the redirect on their site.

I don't think that's what Aubrey is looking for.

He has a redirect from his project web page pointing to an external website.
The redirect is currently wrong.  I think he wants help replacing it with 
the correct redirect.
