Summary: dead links on homepage

Initial Comment:
when browsing http://docbook.sourceforge.net/ , in the section "About DocBook" the links to "free tools", "XSL", and "DSSSL" result in a "404 Not Found".

apparently,  the wiki has been relocated from http://docbook.org/wiki/ to http://wiki.docbook.org/topic/ , and these links need to be updated, too.

Thomas,

Thanks, but I think something's wrong with that link checker.
Is it claiming it can't find the file
/projects/cvstools/index.html and the other files listed?
Those files all exist.

i just googled for a link checker, found http://www.linklint.org/, called:

   perl linklint-2.3.5 -limit 1000 -http -host docbook.sourceforge.net -doc linkdoc /@

which resulted in:

   Linklint found 90 files and checked 23 html files.
   There were 4 missing files. 9 files had broken links.
   4 errors, no warnings.

here's the detais on the broken links, i suggest you regularly use a tool like this.

file: errorF.txt
host: docbook.sourceforge.net
date: Mon, 10 May 2004 20:30:48 (local)
Linklint version: 2.3.5

I just did a global search-and-replace on the Wiki links in
the generated HTML for the project website. Please check the
links again and let me know if you find any other broken ones.

Thanks,

  --Mike
