Hi all

I had thought the Ansible docs site was down, but it looks like the URL structure has changed and previous URLs indexed by Google are not being redirected.

For example, these results: [https://www.google.co.za/search?q=ansible+ec2\_tag](https://www.google.co.za/search?q=ansible+ec2_tag)  
…link to this page: [http://docs.ansible.com/ec2\_tag\_module.html](http://docs.ansible.com/ec2_tag_module.html)  
…which shows a 404 (the correct URL seems to be [http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/ec2\_tag\_module.html](http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/ec2_tag_module.html))

Maybe someone could configure redirection for the affected pages, or at least try and get the Google index invalidated?

Tom

The redirects were actually there before - as we work to fix the docs outage  
of this weekend, we'll bring them back. Apologies for the inconvenience.
