Well, i guess that's because we're not yet online with the
final result :) but the link should be fine come October 7
(or so, gotta check the timetable again).

Strange - do you mean the "view" command on the start page
(i.e. http://128.32.102.88:8090/gen/ )?
This does not redirect to the official page (at least not
for me / Safari/Mac) - of course, with "official" meaning
"geoimages.berkeley.edu"... it's redirecting to a static
copy (explained below)
The preparation server is running a three-levels system now:
- editing
- live preview
- "frozen"
Editing:
does what it says. Pages all covered with little buttons to
change the texts.
Live Preview: Same pages, only without the little buttons.
"Frozen": A file copy done by a web grabber program.
Since the "view" link on the start page will redirect to
that copy, the pages there will lag behind the editing/live
version by any amount of time - currently, it's about three
weeks old or so ;)
Basically, to view the current version, pick "edit" (logging
in) and then go to your page and switch to "live preview"
(see the new intro page behind the "edit" link for a short
manual).
I've change to that approach because some things are a lot
easier to handle (like link checking, or copying to the main
server), and it's a rather good protection against the
problem we had last time when some links that pointed to the
prep. server accidentally slipped through and that little
cube suddenly received quite a share from the "main" site
traffic (it held up pretty well, but i don't need to see
that again ;)
Unrelated, but also something to consider: We may need a bit
longer to approve etc. the individual entries, with Landis
being unavailable and all, so don't worry if some things are
not addressed within 24 hours ;)
