I am concerned about the web > pages of the site that are all about OpenOffice.org Bugzilla. For the website I have a sed script that is intended to be used to change urls - ooo/site/trunk/tools/urlrewrite.sed It currently only goes as far as remapping urls for the openoffice.org projects as sub-folders of the podling site. A similar script would be used when we decide how and how much goes to an Apache hosted openoffice.org. So, I am adding "s/http:\/\/openoffice.org\/bugzilla/https:\/\/issues.apache.org\/ooo/g" Regards, Dave > > - Dennis > > -----Original Message----- > From: FR web forum [mailto:o...@athena.apache.org] > Sent: Monday, September 05, 2011 11:14 > To: ooo-dev@incubator.apache.org > Subject: Re: [DISCUSS] Announcing Apache ooo Bugzilla on OpenOffice.org Lists > > >> On the English and Spanish forums (I cannot talk for the others) the >> "how to report bugs and suggestions" tutorials are updated with the >> new bugzilla address. > Ditto for French forum :-) > > But as I said before.
