Web site redesign

Web site redesign

[Colin Watson]

Hi Bruce,

I just committed a couple of typo fixes to the website, and suddenly the
redesign you committed back in February went live, rather to my surprise
when the page I was editing vanished.  I guess the GNU admins fixed the
commit trigger!

Now people are reporting some dead links.  I fixed up
http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub-legacy.en.html by restoring
grub-legacy-support.en.html, but Jordan Uggla reported a link to
grub-2.en.html on the front page which is now dead.  I wasn't actually
intending to get involved in a web site redesign.  Now that changes
appear to be going live in a timely fashion, do you think you could fix
this up?

Thanks,

Apparently Bruce is busy right now. Could you then revert the changes
that broke website and send the patch of changes you reverted to ML?
This way we keep a record of it but it doesn't stall you.

Bruce actually replied, but I see now that he only did so by private
mail and not to the list.  I'll respect his preferences and not copy his
mail back to the list, but he's made a couple of commits to fix some
broken links.  Doesn't look like there's any need to revert at this
point.

Cheers,

I fixed the links.  What errors are you seeing?
