Actually, all redirects are broken including ones that were working before.
What's changed?

I'm just musing on the possibility that links to pages that are redirects could be highlighted. They could be shown in a different colour for instance.
Earle and others,
Looking at the page http://london.openguides.org/data/big-renaming.html
this is including all pages with post codes, not just the ones that are yet to do.
I guess that this is because the pages still exist as #REDIRECTs. Can we
exclude these.
Better still, can we list these separately, and give a total % of pages done.
Ivor.

It's been pointed out that not everyone is aware of Earle's decision
to rename the pub pages on the guide. For information I point you to:
http://london.openguides.org/?Big_Renaming
(I'm not really happy with the change, but I thought it would be best
to let people know.)

This is fantastic! I am clicking all over and finding tons of geocoded
nodes, nice.
Integrating mapufacture into open guides (and vice versa) was on the
order of hours work. Shows off how easy mapping is becoming.
A couple non-critical suggestions: list the number of geocoded nodes in
the map link, then it won't be surprising if no points appear. also,
mapufacture accepts a "title" argument, which could be set to the
locale or category name.
If there's interest in integrating mapufacture with another openguides,
or any other service, get in touch.

I am pleased to announce that we have a new feature on the Open Guide to
London: category and locale maps.
In the navigation of every locale page and category page, you will now
see a link to "Map of geocoded pages in this [locale/category]". This will
take you to a Flash map showing all nodes in that locale that have a
latitude and longitude in their metadata. My thanks to Mikel Maron for
developing mapufacture.com, and the worldKit that powers it, which allows
us to do this.

Why on account of the copyright notice? All I can see is (C) 2000-2005,
which is a pretty standard assertion of ownership. You don't have to
assert such ownership to have it. It does not imply any further rights
or restrictions.
I know we've been through this, but I would like to point out again that
I think images hosted openly on a web site are fair game.
As a matter of politeness we should ask the webmaster and trawl around
for a statement on their site, but if they don't want the image
appearing outside their own site they should use the technical
mechanisms available for that.
It's analogous to web sites suing for "deep linking", i.e. placing a
link to anything but the home page. It's the way the web is designed
and it's a feature. If you don't like that particular feature, you're
bucking the trend but there are ways to stop it from happening. (Look
at the referrer header.)
