    From Dirk Craeynest@21:1/5 to All on Sun Oct 3 14:47:18 2021
    XPost: fr.comp.lang.ada, comp.lang.misc

    Today, October 3rd, 2021, marks the 30th anniversary of the first
    public event organized by the (then still forming) Ada-Belgium
    non-profit organization, a half-day Seminar.

    A page was created on the Ada-Belgium web-site to present some
    historic information on that event, retrieved from various archives.

    Enjoy!

    The former URL is a shorter version and should redirect to the latter.
    Looks like reddit applied the redirection when posting the message.

    The short URL works for me as-is in Google Chrome and in Firefox.
    Could the problem come from the fact that there was no leading
    "http://" and that not all browsers add this automagically?

    Does the following work? http://www.cs.kuleuven.be/~dirk/ada-belgium/events/91/911003-abs.html

    Sorry for the confusion, and thanks for pointing out the alternative!

    Dirk

    Neither of the short-form links worked for me this afternoon (Linux/Firefox), but do work now.

    The problem seems to be with Emacs/Gnus; copied & pasted in Safari &
    Firefox workes fine.
