Because it is one of the oldest wikis though moving it could break alot
of links. Is there a way to mitigate this? The feature of historical
browsing is cooler than broken links anyway, so I agree with your
proposal.

You could leave the old one there for a while,
make it read-only, and
put a <dtml-raise Redirect> in the standard header.

This is what I did when I moved the xml wiki.

When you think about it, it's really more than cool,
it's critical, especially for a wiki like the interfaces
wiki.

There also is a Redirector product installed on Zope.org that can take care of
complex URL redirection.
