           Summary: Convert website to absolute paths (and use MultiViews)
           Product: openclipart.org
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: website
        AssignedTo: clipart at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: turnip at turnipspatch.com


We discussed this on the list -- it's not a major problem, but this bug can
serve as a reminder that we want to slowly transition over to absolute paths
from the current relative ones.

Things that need to be done (in order):

 1) Edit wiki page to explain that people need to set up a vhost rather than
putting the website into a directory
 2) Turn on MultiViews -- non MultiViews URIs could be redirected to the
MutiViews version (having multiple URIs for one resource is a bad idea)
 3) Gradually edit the relative paths in the markup to become absolute
 4) Remove the then-redundant $site_root stuff

Again, this is not a top priority so it can be a gradual thing. It would be good
if people start using absolutes by default from now on though; the two can co-exist.
