The ESUG archive (e.g. slides of conferences) used to be

http://esug.org/data

With the new website, we lost that. And it is no that simple to fix

  • this is ~40GB, so we can not put it on github pages
  • gitbub pages seemingly can not rewrite URLs

The archive for now is available as

http://old.esug.org/data/

So we have setup http://archive.esug.org as a permanent URL

What is now missing: a rewrite. Github pages does not support this in any way. The only thing they have is the concept of a 404.html page. We could add an index.html and a 404.html in the data/ directory. The problem is that this would not make the URL serve the orginal file, but at least would redirect the browser to archive.esug.org:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">

<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8" />
    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; URL='https://example.com'/" />
    <title>404 - redirect</title>
</head>

<body></body>

</html>

The alternative would be to get real hosting for ESUG (e.g. OVH) like Pharo
