There is no way to specifically rewrite the URLs from docs.ofbiz.org unless we 
clearly understand the algorithm they use for creating them - which we 
definitely can do - but it will take time that I do not have at the moment and 
it is very well outside of what Contegix can do.  Anyways, if someone has some 
rewrites that we can apply, I'm happy to get them implemented - but I do not 
think anyone will have one that will actually work until they get into 
understanding the indexing that Confluence uses.

Cheers,
Ruppert
