Best policy would be whenever a page changes its file name we should
create a permanent redirect to the new page/file/name. Search engines can
then follow these redirects and transfer their ranking data for the old
page to the new page.
(The old GSOC page is likely still at the top of the search results
because there are links to it out on the web and the search engines use
those to rank that page relative to others.)

Could this be done as part of the website build process (e.g. adding a gsoc
source file back in and configuring the system to make it into a redirect),
or would it have to be done manually?
