Description John Arthorne CLA 2010-04-05 11:11:44 EDT 
The Platform project received this nag email over the weekend:

* Project home page (projecturl = http://www.eclipse.org/platform/) does
not have an "About <project>","About This Project" or "Information about
<project>" link. Projects are required to provide that standard link on
their home page (see
http://www.eclipse.org/projects/standard-link-on-home-page.php) .

However, this page *does* have an "About this Project" link - it is the first link in the left nav section, as required by the documentation. Please fix the tool that detects these problems, or let us know what is wrong with the project home page.

From looking at the log the script leaves behind I can see why you got this email message.  The script is looking for the 'About' link to point to 'eclipse.platform' and the 'About' link is currently pointing to 'eclipse'.

Current Link:
http://www.eclipse.org/projects/project_summary.php?projectid=eclipse

Link the script expects:
http://www.eclipse.org/projects/project_summary.php?projectid=eclipse.platform

Can you let me know which link is the correct link and I can try and look into this issue further.

I see, that makes sense. Ok to close as invalid, but if you could improve the nag email it would be helpful if it contained the concrete URL the script was looking for.
Comment 3 Gabe O'Brien CLA 2010-04-06 20:18:05 EDT 
I updated the email to include this sentence:

  The 'About' link should point to this URL: 
  http://www.eclipse.org/projects/project_summary.php?projectid=PROJECTID

Let me know if this is sufficient.  Otherwise, this change will be live with the next roll out of the Portal.

Sounds good!
Comment 5 Gabe O'Brien CLA 2010-04-12 16:28:35 EDT 
The code to resolve this bug has been release with the last roll out of the Portal. I am marking this bug a 'fixed'.
