I realise this is not exactly news, but when replacing Ask Fedora, was there a
reason to break all the links on the entire web to existing solutions, rather
than just putting the new system on a different domain? Or, failing that, at
least adding (conditional) redirects and/or links to the "old" site?
It seems like finally as Fedora was building up a body of useful "ask"-type
content and get traction on search engines (= searching for things not only
leading to results about Ubuntu), we wiped the slate clean.
As it is now, whenever I (as a Fedora user) search for something, I still
frequently end up at a dead end on a 404 page on ask.fedoraproject.org. There
isn't even a *link* to the corresponding page on askbot.fedoraproject.org -
surely that, at least, is something we could do? (yes, I realise one just has to
add "bot" to the hostname, but that's not the point - not everyone will either
realise that, or bother, and it's trivial to do when generating the error page)
This is very much needed but apparently, the effort got stalled:
