Because of new NetBeans web design a lot of bookmarks became inaccessible. In Utilities module I had to change almost all URLs, but old NetBeans releases contain original links. And also references from external pages become wrong, e.g. now I found link at Project XEMO to <http://www.netbeans.org/articles/nb-cvs-33.html> that was moved to <http://www.netbeans.org/ide/docs/nb-cvs-33.html>. I am sure it is not only one example. I would like to ask web-masters to reactivate old pages to redirect to a new location.
Every effort is made to redirect high-traffic pages of course, but finding those in the IDE is something we did not catch. Libor, how do we get a list of URLs used in the IDE that we should redirect ? Thanks.
I can speak just about Utilities modules (it adds URL bookmarks to NB), e.g. in NB 3.3: http://utilities.netbeans.org/source/browse/utilities/src/org/netbeans/modules/utilities/Layer.xml?rev=1.29.14.2&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup&only_with_tag=release33 But I think all "reasonable" pages removed from www/www at time of NB web reorganization should be reactivated, e.g. www/articles: http://xml.netbeans.org/source/browse/www/www/articles/Attic/
RE - redirecting all reasonable pages ... not sure about this, what exactly is "reasonable" ? :-) I think *most* pages would end up being reasonable, and we would have way too many redirects all over the place. RE - key URLs in the IDE : definitely should try to make some permanent URLs which never change, and work for all past NB releases. See issue 34149 for that. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 34149 ***
