[14:31] <zumbrunn> hannesw: yt?
[14:56] <hannesw> zumbrunn: now i'm here
[14:56] <zumbrunn> I'm wondering about what we want to do about old links
[14:57] <hannesw> which ones?
[14:57] <zumbrunn> there are about 20 or so that won't work anymore from the welcome app
[14:57] <zumbrunn> like links to pages under /docs/guide
[14:58] <hannesw> just update them to the new locations, don't worry about old links
[14:58] <zumbrunn> I could create these pages on the new site and make them redirect
[14:58] <zumbrunn> or you could customize the notfound action to catch them and redirect them
[14:59] <hannesw> please don't. no more redirecting pages. better to do this with mod_rewrite
[14:59] <zumbrunn> I did already update them now
[14:59] <hannesw> also much simpler
[14:59] <zumbrunn> so, the problem is just for people that use the current or earlier releases
[14:59] <zumbrunn> should I give you a list then?
[15:00] <hannesw> have you ever worked with mod_rewrite? it's really simple. each line is a redirect, old location to new location
[15:00] <zumbrunn> or do you just want to forget about it?
[15:00] <zumbrunn> yes, I have
[15:00] <hannesw> let's just use mod_rewrite once we're done. ok?
[15:00] <zumbrunn> do I have access to that on the new server?
[15:01] <zumbrunn> (I don't think I do)
[15:01] <hannesw> do you have the root pw?
[15:01] <zumbrunn> I have the one for adele
[15:02] <zumbrunn> but that's not the same machine, or is it?
[15:02] <hannesw> nope
