[Digikam-devel] Redirect target for extragear.kde.org/apps/kipi (was: Re: [Kde-extra-gear] This list and associated website will be ending in one week)

[Friedrich W. H. Kossebau]

Hi Kipi developers,

we need your feedback on what kind of redirect to do for the pages about Kipi 
& DigikamImagePlugins on the to-be-shutdown site extragear.kde.org.

What would be the best target for redirects from extragear.kde.org/apps/kipi?

And DigikamImagePlugins is the predecessor of Kipi, right? So what would be 
the best redirect target for 
https://extragear.kde.org/apps/digikamimageplugins ?

See below for respective context.
