I agree. I've been seeing a lot of these tinyurl links in mail messages
recently (mostly from Ted, I think ;) and thinking about what we could do
to remove the need for them. (They're very handy, there's no doubt about
that.)
In addition to what you mention above, one other thing that bothers me
about them is that you have no indication of where you're going when you
follow one. It could be on the Apache site, but it could be anywhere, and
you don't know until you get there.
So, I'm thinking about proposing to the infrastructure folks that we run a
tinyurl work-alike at Apache. There are quite a lot of these around now -
see http://notlong.com/links/ - but I don't know if any of them are open
source. If not, I might have to write one, but it shouldn't be that hard.
Comments?

-1 on using tinyurl in Struts javadocs and documentation. I can't think
of any valid reason not to specify the real url in our docs.

tinyurl.com [was: Re: cvs commit: jakarta-stru...]
Posted by James Mitchell <jm...@apache.org>.
Maybe its just me or I'm missing something here, but do we have to use
tinyurl.com? I'm not sure I like the idea of relying on a 3rd party for
web resource address translation.
If continue using this service and something happened and tinyurl.com was
not available, we would lose many valuable references such as the
one below.
Perhaps we could utilize some other means of shortening long URLs, or at
least something we have more control over.
Your thoughts?
