  • Some of the documentation refers to web pages under
    the domain `osdl.org'. However, `osdl.org' now
    redirects to `linuxfoundation.org'.

    Rather than rely on redirections, this patch updates
    the addresses appropriately; for the most part, only
    documentation that is meant to be current has been
    updated.

    The patch should be pretty quick to scan and check;
    each new web-page url was gotten by trying out the
    original URL in a browser and then simply copying the
    the redirected URL (formatting as necessary).

    There is some conflict as to which one of these domain
    names is preferred:

    linuxfoundation.org
    linux-foundation.org

    So, I wrote:

    info@linuxfoundation.org

    and got this reply:

    linuxfoundation.org is preferred. The canonical name for our web site is
    www.linuxfoundation.org. Our list site is actually
    lists.linux-foundation.org.

    Regarding email linuxfoundation.org is preferred there are a few people
    who choose to use linux-foundation.org for their own reasons.

    Consequently, I used `linuxfoundation.org' for web pages and
    `lists.linux-foundation.org' for mailing-list web pages and email addresses;
    the only personal email address I updated from `@osdl.org' was that of
    Andrew Morton, who prefers `linux-foundation.org' according `git log'.

  • Below you will find an updated version from the original series bunching all patches into one big patch
    updating broken web addresses that are located in Documentation/*
    Some of the addresses date as far far back as 1995 etc... so searching became a bit difficult,
    the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated.
    Now there are also some addresses pointing to .spec files some are located, but some(after searching
    on the companies site)where still no where to be found. In this case I just changed the address
    to the company site this way the users can contact the company and they can locate them for the users.
