582699 - Expose bugzil.la short URL in page header

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(bugzilla.mozilla.org :: General, defect)

Description

[Fred Wenzel [:wenzel]]

We have short URL that automatically works for any bug.

If you expose it in the page header using: link rev="canonical" href="http://..." an extension like mine [1] can pick it up automatically.

I know that the short URL header has not been sufficiently standardized yet, but if you are worried about that you could add all three options (for an example, look at the HTML header in [2]), otherwise just go for:

<link id="shorturl" rev="canonical" href="...">

which is what flickr uses on its picture pages.

It's live.

Just as a side note, I'm working on adding SSL support for bugzil.la.
Should have it soon, if everything works out.
