[jira] [Created] (THRIFT-1160) Thrift incubator website should redirect to thrift.apache.org

Thrift incubator website should redirect to thrift.apache.org
-------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: THRIFT-1160
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1160
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Website
            Reporter: Jeff Whiting


Search google for "apache thrift".  The top link goes to http://incubator.apache.org/thrift/.  That site is outdated and not maintained.  Clicking on the download link takes you to an older version of thrift (0.5.0).  It can be very confusing and has tripped up multiple developers where I work.

http://incubator.apache.org/thrift/ should simply be redirected to the current site http://thrift.apache.org to prevent confusion and have people going to the current website.  Using a permanent 301 redirect would be the best as it would tell the search engines that the site has moved.

modified incubator to redirect back to current thrift site, waiting on cache to clear before closing ticket.
