Hi, I was writting a document for Django's documentation (#3325) and just noticed that links between documents of the documentation are absolute, is this intentional ? If one would like to run his/her own mirror at home converting the .txt to .html he/she would have to rewrite all the URLs, not to mention that when a new release is made all URLs have to be updated (as old-releases go to another folder) why aren't those links relative?

Hey Marc,
That's a great point. I'll play with the URLs to see whether we can get away with using relative links.
Thanks, Adrian

I've verified in changeset [4358] that relative links work perfectly, so I've created a ticket:
