New wiki

[peterj]

I see that the wiki has been replaced with a newer version. I like that the new version looks nicer and appears to contain new functionality which I loo forward to exploring.

However, I dislike that the old wiki URLs are not being forwarded to the new location, This means that anyone browsing through the forums to find a solution to their problem, if they hit on a post telling them too read a ceratin wiki article, that wiki URL is now broke.

Are there any plans to provide the redirection in the near future?

Looks like they implemented the redirect feature (during the weekend?). For example this http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/ClassCastExceptions now redirects the user to
https://www.jboss.org/community/docs/DOC-9280

Looks like the redirect takes a while - perhaps I was just too impatient to wait for the redirect to occur.

Also, looking at the new URLs, for some reason the phrase DOC-9280 just does not bring to mind "class cast exceptions," but then maybe that is just me. ;-)

I agree - the earlier URLs were far more intuitive.

The URLs might be enhanced in future upgrades. Quote from https://www.jboss.org/community/poll.jspa?poll=1001
