The W3C has something to say about this: "Cool URIs Don't Change."
  http://www.w3.org/Provider/Style/URI

But if it's not possible to keep the old URI:

1) Provide a redirect. You can configure Apache to do that using
mod_rewrite (probably easiest), or you can put a PHP script in place of
the removed file that does the redirect. Be sure to return code 301
(Moved Permanently).

2) Try to structure the site so that you won't have this problem again.

By the way, even though I've been talking a lot about what should be
done differently, I do appreciate the effort that the volunteers have
put in. I'm also doing my part by proofreading the documentation myself.
Thanks to Pete for the great amount that he already does!
