Hi Rebecca,
Yes, this is an (unintended, but necessary) consequence of the move
from a previous URI scheme to the new one, that was implemented
along with the AsciiDoctor conversion that was finished some time
ago.
Eventually, the idea is to set up HTTP 301 redirects, which should
not only ensure that old links get redirected properly to the new
documentation (so that there are no dead links), but it should also
make it so that the various search engines and other web-spiders
pick up on the change.
The current issue, however, that there's still a few things that
needs to be addressed before this can happen, and we also need to
have an actual map of how the URIs changed, which needs to be
created by someone. It'd be great if someone would be interested in
making this map. :)
I hope this sheds a bit of light, but rest assured that we're aware
of it, and are working on it. ;)
Yours,
Daniel Ebdrup Jensen, with a doc hat on.
