We have changed our docs structure quite a bit, and we likely will continue in the future. If an old link points to a page we no longer have, the user sees a 404 page. It would be nice if we could get a log of the pages hit in this way, and maybe also where from. Then we could occasionally go and try to update the original link.

To prevent breaking links in other users/groups' own docs, we should also investigate link forwarding for high-traffic pages when we do restructure links.

We want to keep our issues up to date and active. This issue hasn't seen any activity in the last 75 days.
We have applied the _flag:stale label to indicate that this issue should be reviewed again.
When you review, please reread the spec and then apply one of these three options:

  • prioritize: apply the flag:schedule label to suggest moving this issue into the backlog now
  • close: if the issue is no longer relevant, explain why (give others a chance to reply) and then close.
  • archive: sometimes an issue has important information or ideas but we won't work on it soon. In this case
    apply the someday label to show that this won't be prioritized. The stalebot will ignore issues with this
    label in the future. Use sparingly!
