[jira] Commented: (MNG-1496) Ancient documentation is confusing users.
[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1496?page=comments#action_51702 ]
Brett Porter commented on MNG-1496:
-----------------------------------
What we need:
- a list of files to remove
- (preferably) a list of URLs to redirect old files to when the same
document moved to a new place, or a document was rewritten. There are
some in particular that are linked in a lot of places externally that
we can redirect.
attached is the current directory listing for comparison against source

> I work in an environment where maven has been in active use since pre-1.0 days.
> The users and developers here have links to documentation on the maven.apache.org website that points to bad or old documentation.
> Can they be removed, or better yet have an apache url rewrite to the appropriate page?
> Examples of ones I've found.
> http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/core-plugins.html
> From November 2003 - so old it mentions ApacheCon 2003 and maven 1.0-rc2-SNAPSHOT
> http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/optional/optional.html
> From March 2004
> Both of those should redirect to http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/index.html
