Hi, as discussed with Josip Rodin on IRC, I'm forwarding my ideas for the list archives URL to debian-www, and hope to get some answers about the ideas.
If there are any open issues with that, please don't hesitate to ask me.

These two lines do the trick on my system here: RewriteRule /([^/]*)/([^/]*)/(..)/(.*) /$1/$2/$1-$2$3/$4 [PT,L] RewriteRule /([^/]*)/([^/]*)/.+(..)/(.*) /$1/$2/$3/$4 [R] The first makes that for http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2004/02/msg00014.html the right files are read from disk. The second redirects any current form-URLs to the new form (however, it doesn't look for validity, so something like http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2004/debian-devel-200502/msg00014.html would be redirected to the URL above, which is of course wrong). I hope that helps. If there are any open issues with that, please don't hesitate to ask me, via mail or via IRC, nick aba.
