See Also links on r.mapcalc manual give 404 errors

The links at the bottom of the r.mapcalc manual (​http://grass.osgeo.org/grass70/manuals/r.mapcalc.html) do not work since the GRASS website has been redone.

A Google seems to find copies of the PDFs on the Italian mirror - see ​http://grass.fbk.eu/gdp/raster/mapcalc-algebra.pdf and ​http://grass.fbk.eu/gdp/raster/mapcalc.pdf, but I'm not sure if we should be linking to those or copying the files elsewhere and then linking to them

I moved them here ​http://grass.osgeo.org/uploads/grass/history_docs/mapcalc-algebra.pdf and ​http://grass.osgeo.org/uploads/grass/history_docs/mapcalc.pdf

I also discover other files that has same problems, I'll fix them tomorrow

I'd suggest to have a better link (/grass/ is redundant and uploads is somewhat clear). Maybe

​http://grass.osgeo.org/documents/pdfs/ ?

PS: All docs are still at ​http://grassold.osgeo.org/gdp/ (no need to search at the mirrors)

but it is not possible to manage it with the CMS admin interface. it should be ​http://grass.osgeo.org/uploads/* you could try creating a symbolic link

I am aware of that but believe that it is not even necessary for the file position. It can be any subdir (since they are static files) and then the CMS "documents" page points to them.

E.g. the grass64/manuals/ subdir is also not in the CMS space.

I am for easy to remember links which are not too long.

Me and other web manager could not add new files and every time you should insert the new file

Sure, but we could just create subdirectories in the upload/ of the CMS and then links within the visible web space. No big deal...
