Now at least: Seems I missed to complete filing the ticket at the time, at 
least I could not find any now that I looked for it, other than expected.

But now there is a ticket filed for sysadmin, with the list of proposed 
redirects. It is ticket with id GIB-5875 for those who can look at tickets. 
Sorry for having let this slipped for a while.

Cheers
Friedrich
