In going thru the application index deciding what packages to include in
BlueEDU as other applications i noticed several dead links. Do we check these
periodicly?
If not, we really should with the schoolforge deal, people are expecting on
time, accurate information and dead links suck and can get people frustrated
and possibly lose interest in schoolforge or associated projects.
If needed I could probably write a perl script that will check for valid links,
then we could modify the db a touch to add a active bit field and drop it in
just even if nothing but we display "404 Found on Blah Date" so that they know
it could possibly be dead for good or dead for now so people at least know we
are aware of the problem.
