[Mediawiki-l] Redirects and such

[P. Kerim friedman]

Alisson,

First off, MusicWiki looks great!

Thanks for the combined .htaccess file! Unfortunately, it didn't do a 
thing. I wonder if there isn't some kind of a permissions or file 
format problem preventing the computer from reading it properly, or 
something of the sort... I'm asking my host's tech support to see 
what's up. I'll let you know what happens.

Cheers,

kerim
