That will break the existing links.

If you want do the switch ahead of fixing the documentation, then one
way to do it is to ensure that projects-old is set up to point to the
current projects.a.o.

Then change projects-new to link to projects-old instead of projects -
that should be trivial to do.

Then projects-new can replace projects.a.o.

Documentation can then be migrated to the new code in the old URL.

Did not see that.

That will break projects-old, so -1 until projects-old has been
retired unless you can find a way to keep projects-old working with
the new location.

AFAIK it's not necessary to move the location.

No, see above.

Not entirely, see above.
