The discussion about the same topic is going on in the FreeBSD-DOC mailing lists. # I'm sorry that this replay is so late. > Any > suggestions about the least painful (for mirrors) of doing it? > The best way would be to just move stuff to ja, and issue a > permanent redirect for ja_JP.EUC, but that requires that all > mirrors twiddle their server config.

I think a temporary symlink (perhaps 2 or 3 months ?) from ja_JP.EUC to ja is better, because the permanent redirect will cause more confusion. Most of the people who have used the Japanese WWW are using the mirror site in Japan (http://www.jp.freebsd.org/www.freebsd.org/). I will announce the URL changes in the Japanese FreeBSD announce mailing list and in the Web http://www.jp.freebsd.org. Cheers, --- motoyuki
