Marcello, I see that you are also redirecting old-syle files, e.g. http://www.gutenberg.org/etext90/getty11h.htm is redirected to http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/etext90/getty11h.htm Would it not be better to redirect these to the catalog, e.g. http://www.gutenberg.org/etext90/getty* could redirect to http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/4 That would ensure that anyone using old-style links would get directed to the latest version(s) of a work. I'm guessing that you could program the redirect from the old GUTINDEX file. Steve Marcello Perathoner wrote:
The new canonical url:
http://www.gutenberg.org/files/12345
will redirect to:
http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/1/2/3/4/12345/
Of course, this works for all ebooks that are stored in the new filesystem. Old ebooks that have not yet been moved to the new filesystem will NOT work.
Note: the redirect takes one extra round trip to the server, so the second url is faster. If response time is important, use the second url.
