Forwarding what I failed to reply to on-list... -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: [Consortium] lao subdomains Date: Thu, 26 Apr 2012 18:56:44 -0400 From: Ivica Ico Bukvic &lt;ico(a)vt.edu&gt; To: Robin Gareus &lt;robin(a)gareus.org&gt; 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.
