Quick work :)

I've noticed one oddity, which is if I go one of the citable URLs like
http://testtoolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/mira_assembler
and then browse away to another section/repository/etc the URL
in the browser's address bar does not update. You can be looking
at repository B, but the address bar URL still says repository A.

(This was one reason I stuck a redirect in my prototype).

Separately, but perhaps related, it would be nice if via the
search or otherwise, the new URLs were automatically used -
that would be slightly easier than copying it from the text of
the page.

However, this is already functional enough to start sharing
direct links. Once this goes live, you'll have to brief the
whoever writes the new tool alerts for Twitter to use it :)

Thanks,

Peter
