www directs me to 'larousse.wikipedia.org' --
larousse is a great
name, but for an innocent user it looks confusing. Why can't we
continue to use 'www' or 'en' as the host name?
Larousse is just the name of the machine, and shouldn't generally be
linked to directly; at some point in the near future it will probably
not serve wiki pages under that name anymore, but just under en. and
www.
It's only been linked to under its own name temporarily so that people
whose DNS servers are way behind can get at the new server. It's been
up for a few days now, I'm not seeing any more English-Wikipedia
connections on the old server, and I've taken the old server's copy of
the wiki offline, so at this point anyone who isn't able to get at the
new server via
www.wikipedia.org is in trouble. :)
If something is redirecting you automatically to the
larousse.wikipedia.org hostname, please tell me exactly what it is so I
can fix it.
