Would it not also make sense _not_ to link to tinyurl type services?
These are under even less control than the Ubuntu Wiki.
Perhaps it's time that we had a tinyurl type system at (for example)
"go.ubuntu.com" to cater for this kind of thing. An Ubuntu run site
such as this could havea redirect to (for example) kvm documentation
at go.ubuntu.com/kvm . Using such a such would mean that in the event
the target documentation changes or becomes unvailable, the
maintainers of "go.ubuntu.com" could just change the /kvm redirect to
something else, and not have to update the server-tips package at all.
Cheers,
Al.
