Plain language summary link for Open Database License (ODbL) v1.0 is broken #89

Open StephenAbbott opened 5 years ago

StephenAbbott commented 5 years ago

At https://opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/1.0, there is a link to 'A plain language summary of the Open Database License' which goes to a broken link at https://www.opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/1-0/summary/

Could this please be changed to link to https://opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/summary instead?

That link also seems to be broken. Do you mean https://opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/summary/index.html ?

I reported the issue via email, and was able to find the replacement link ( https://opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/summary/ ) by going to archive.org's wayback machine and noticing that https://www.opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/1-0/summary/ used to redirect there. However, it doesn't work without the trailing slash.

This repository isn't what powers the opendatacommons.org site so not something that can be fixed here. AFAICT it is still a WordPress site. However there is a repository for the site https://github.com/okfn/opendatacommons and at least a plan as of last year to migrate it https://github.com/okfn/opendatacommons/issues/4 ... @StephenAbbott I'd suggest opening an issue there and closing this one.
