Sebb commented on COMMONSSITE-75:
---------------------------------

I meant to add: 

If we do revert, then we need to add the reverse RedirectMatch entries to .htaccess in case people have bookmarked the new URLs.

> With the recent site update the components are now published at the URL:
> {code}http://commons.apache.org/(proper|sandbox|dormant)/commons-<componentname>{code}
> That doesn't make very friendly URLs. "commons" is displayed twice, in the subdomain and before the component name. We should at least have:
> {code}http://commons.apache.org/(proper|sandbox|dormant)/<componentname>{code}
> And for the components in Commons Proper we should drop "proper" from the path such that we are back with the same, short, friendly URLs:
> {code}http://commons.apache.org/<componentname>{code}
> or
> {code}http://commons.apache.org/(sandbox|dormant)/<componentname>{code}
