Since we have no control over Patrick's offsite content, after some 
courtesy redirect period of time we should remove that and other 
subdomains altogether, together with other defunct pages. I also like 
ready redirecting smaller pages to the wiki as you suggested.

    Hi *,

    There's a whole lot of v-hosts belowlinuxaudio.org  <http://linuxaudio.org>. The recent
    migration of vhosts gave rise to rethink and hopefully consolidate others.

    Let me first list the "good ones" and them move on to suggestions for
    the cruft. Please comment on my suggestions there. If you don't, you
    forfeit your right to complain later :-)


    == The good ==

       the conference collections

    == The questionable - vhosts that may need work ==

    http://lad.linuxaudio.org/
       curre!
    ntly a
    simple stub-page for LADs.
       ?? ->  redirect tohttp://wiki.linuxaudio.org/wiki/lad  ??

    http://git.linuxaudio.org
       outdated endeavor from 2008 by yours truly. The idea was to track
       and mirror code repositories. Since superseded by github et al.
       ?? ->  should be removed !

    http://lau.linuxaudio.org/
       302 ->  http://linux-audio.com/
       Linux Audio Users Guide - some useful information (read-only curated
       by P.Shirkey)
       IMHO the content of this site should be merged into
        http://wiki.linuxaudio.org/wiki/
       and
        http://wiki.linuxaudio.org/wiki/newbie
       to allow to being updated by the LAU community.

       The conten!
    t was
    deleted from LAO on April/22/2012 after it
       was migrated tolinux-audio.com  <http://linux-audio.com>  by its maintainer.
       We do have a backup in case s.o want to keep it alive at LAO

       ?? keep redirect | use wiki ??

    http://quicktoots.linuxaudio.org/
       301 ->  http://quicktoots.linux-audio.com/
       Tutorials - mostly pre 2004
       the up-to-date stuff should probably go toflossmanual.net  <http://flossmanual.net>

       the content was deleted from LAO on April/22/2012 after it
       was migrated tolinux-audio.com  <http://linux-audio.com>  by its maintainer.
       We do have a backup in case s.o want to keep it alive atla.org  <http://la.org>
       ?? ->  should be removed ??

    http://ladspavst.linuxaudio.org/
       pretty m!
    uch
    dysfunct site of Linux VST Compatibility
       not sure what to do with it. - previously maintained by Tim Orford
       ??

    http://lowlatency.linuxaudio.org/
       low-latency info for linux-2.2 and linux-2.4
       some general good info but pretty much outdated.
       it's a single page in that v-host. Should become a wiki-page
       ?? 301 ->  http://wiki.linuxaudio.org/wiki/lowlatency  ??

    http://awards.linuxaudio.org/

       ?? not sure - delete it ?!



    == Misc/other good v-hosts ==

    http://robin.linuxaudio.org/
       things where I keep tempoprary stuff and do site development things
       the docroot 307 redirects to my website

    http://kokkinizita.linuxaudio.org
       excellent LA software - more bang per byte.

    http://stats.linuxaudio.org/
       server statistics
       ?? should those be password protected ??
       some of the AWstats may be used to track users (e.g. top 10 host list)
