Max Rydahl Andersen commented on JBIDE-17856:
---------------------------------------------

I would appreciate we dont apply PR's when there is still uncertainty/not cleared.

I looked into this more last night as commented on the PR but couldn't leave comments here since I was on the move.

community.jboss.org/en/tools last night referenced http://static.jboss.org/images/tools/tools-banner-1180px.png AND http://static.jboss.org/images/tools/favicon.ico - urls you say does not work but still all my browsers and curl can fetch them.

Thus the status last night was that the shared location for these images was working at http://static.jboss.org/images/tools/*

Notice the *tools* url.

jbosstools and the tools on static.jboss.org/* looks like previous attempts on cleaning this up but was never completed. That is why the various profiles in site.yml seem to have *different* urls for these locations. Thus the right place to put these would be in a shared location with community.jboss.org so they do not drift apart.

But in the meantime it looks like community.jboss.org got updated over night and our jboss tools community page lost *all* project branding making it barely noticeable which project you are looking at now ;/

I'm asking #jbossorg what happend there and if that is intentional.

Then back to what url is the right one, here are the current list of "tools" vs "jbosstools" on filemgmt.jboss.org:

/static_htdocs/tools and /static_htdocs/jbosstools both exist (but different content) 
/design_htdocs/jbosstools
/downlods_htdocs/jbosstools AND /downloads_htdocs/tools both exist (one is symbolic link for the other)
/docs_htdocs/tools
/stg_htdocs/tools
/www_htdocs/tools

In short: tools is the one used for majority of our locations on filemgmt. It is only named jbosstools on design and download due to them being created *before* we actually got tools urls defined (~8 years ago).

Thus to clean this up i've symbolic linked static_htdocs/tools/images to static_htdocs/jbosstools/images so we can continue the more consistent use of tools without breaking the urls.

I'm also going to update site.yml again since the pull/181 PR did not actually fix *all* of the occurrences of this path.
