It sounds like there's overwhelming support for URL redirection.
However, as jhawk points out, "olh" is ~meaningless to incoming frosh,
and help.mit.edu is, um, taken. I also suspect that an A record for
athena.mit.edu will probably still break something, but I'm not sure
what.
Any other sugestions for a short hostname? docs.mit.edu/dotfiles?
athena-help.mit.edu/dotfiles? tinyurl.mit.edu? ln-s.mit.edu?
Alternatively, lockers are cheap: mit.edu/dotfiles, mit.edu/tracker,
etc
I'm not opposed to olh.mit.edu, but if there's something better, that
would be nice.
