Patch queue permenent URLs

От

I have found a way to have permanent URLs that stay permanent even if
the email is moved from the patches queue to the patches_hold queue.
The trick is to use <base> to specify the base directory in the html.

The new URLs look like:
http://momjian.us/mhonarc/message-id/44DA31B1.3090700@enterprisedb.com.html

The new URLs appear now.  The old permanent will also remain active
until the next commit fest.

If they are going to be "permanent" then they should reference a
PostgreSQL project domain rather than a personal domain and a company
one. Without disrespect to either, our emails should not rely on
external domains. That way the project is in control, not the other way
around.

Well, the patch queue maintained by Bruce has always been in his domain.
And regarding "the company domain", I note that that string is part of a
Message-Id, generated by the patch submitter's machine, so entirely out
of Bruce's (or anyone else's) control.

Note that we will have permanent URLs by Message-Id in our archives soon
too: if I have my way, they will look like 

http://archives.postgresql.org/msgid/44DA31B1.3090700@enterprisedb.com

or something similar.

The company domain is from the message id by the looks of it - it
should not be changed under any circumstances.

Yep, the only way we can get rid of the company is to use an MD5 hash
(which is what I used at first) instead of the message id, but people
didn't like that.

I have updated the permanent URL to be in the postgresql.org domain:
http://momjian.postgresql.org/mhonarc/message-id/45E9ABDB.908@commandprompt.com.html

Of course, momjian.us works too.  (I am redirecting
momjian.postgresql.org to momjian.us because the comments are bound to
the domain name momjian.us.)
