"I found out that we will not acutally need to move our mailing lists to
savannah.

For the record, the request for the redirection was transmitted to -email is unavailable- (with Bill in Cc:). Maybe you'll need to ping them if that's taking too long.

We are wanting to redirect http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/mailing-lists/ to http://velveeta.che.wisc.edu/octave/lists/ (with following of all sub-directories).  The mod_rewrite rules that we were wanting are

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /software/octave
RewriteRule ^mailing-lists(.*) http://velveeta.che.wisc.edu/octave/lists$1
</IfModule>

We can import mailing list archives to lists.gnu.org.

I can mail the admin people at www.gnu.org to see what can be done for the redirection (.htaccess are not enabled afaik). Can you tell me exactly what you need to redirect, where and how?

The GNU Octave project is in the process of moving from our old website to savannah.  During this process, we are wanting to redirect to our mailing list archives until we have moved the archives to savannah.  (I'm not sure if this is possible, if it's not then we will need to find a good way to store them on savannah because checking them all into the CVS archive will make web maintenance a large chore.)  I put appropriate code in our .htaccess to use mod_rewrite to redirect users to the mailing list home, but it does not appear to be working.  Is there a way we can get .htaccess enabled (or at least mod_rewrite) for our site?

Thanks,

Bill
