#642 Have fonts.fedoraproject.org point to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:Fonts_SIG
Closed: Fixed None Opened 15 years ago by nim.

Have a CNAME and redirection that makes http://fonts.fedoraproject.org/ redirect to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:Fonts_SIG

Reason: the new wiki structure is fine once you're in it, but we need a simpler entry point


Sorry this has gone unanswered for so long.

Mike, do we have any policy for how we approve subdomain requests like this?

I already know Mike's stance on this one, as I've asked for a few in the past to make things easier. Basically, there should be one canonical location for everything. Aliases such as this are a Bad Thing(TM), due to the maintenance overhead - take for example the recent puppet refactoring, it would simply have led to more work for little gain.

I'm somewhat in agreement and somewhat not - there does need to be an easier entry point for certain critical things - but I'm not sure that a subdomain is the right way to do this one. Taht being said, I really cah't suggest anything better at 8AM, either :)

All of that being said, if we actually want to move forward with this, I can do it.....

Go ahead, we may want to take a look a year from now and see if anyone is actually using it.
