I was just in the middle of replying to say you'd said that! :-)

Antonio, my original idea had been to redirect 404s.  But when we had
the web chat on this a while back, Daniel (IIRC) recommended proxying
back to the old server in this way so that no changes were needed on
the Oracle side, if making it less obvious where the content is coming
from.  At the time we were talking about this for netbeans.org not
bits.netbeans.org, and we may need to still look at doing that there
too.

Best wishes,

Neil
