The TBPL -> Treeherder redirects have now been deployed to production, to
allow a day or so of bake time before we switch off TBPL for good.

They handle tree/pusher/revision URL params, so the vast majority of legacy
TBPL links will redirect to an equivalent Treeherder page [1].

Many thanks to everyone who has contributed to TBPL over the years, and a
warm welcome to those who join us on the Treeherder project [2] in the
future! The Treeherder UI can be set up locally in only a few minutes [3],
if anyone would like to contribute/has an itch they wish to scratch :-)

This will be the last multi-newsgroup TBPL/Treeherder related email - so
for further updates please subscribe to dev.tree-management [4] (now
talos-email free).

Best wishes,

Ed & the rest of the Treeherder team.
