.htaccess and Redirect's

[dion]

The redirect in the /turbine directory for Maven's move to top level seems 
to be failing.

The .htaccess file contains this line:

Redirect permanent /turbine/maven/ http://maven.apache.org/

But requests to http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine/maven/ result in a 404.

Does anyone have any ideas??

First, there is this here in the top-level .htaccess

RedirectMatch ^/maven(.*) 
http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine/maven$1

which might get into the way of the Redirect in .htaccess inside the
turbine directory (I can never remember the details of rule
precedences without actually trying the stuff, sorry).  Am I correct
in assuming we could simply remove that line?

And then redirects seem to work better, if you leave of the trailing
slash - well, not really better, it's just for the people who use
jakarta.a.o/turbine/maven instead of jakarta.a.o/turbine/maven/ when
typing the URL into the browser.
