Would it be smart for opensolaris.org to host its own link shortener? This would have several benefits:
*  Shorter, easier links for e-mail, IRC, forums and social media sites
*  Could include statistics (like bit.ly)
* No risk of "link corrosion" since we manage the site, not an unrelated third party * Single place to refactor links when infrastructure is replaced or serviced (e.g. Elaine's excellent work purging SOA links out of the mail archives)

A domain like oso.ly would work well for this purpose.
