Hi all

I had thought the Ansible docs site was down, but it looks like the URL structure has changed and previous URLs indexed by Google are not being redirected.

…which shows a 404 (the correct URL seems to be http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/ec2_tag_module.html)

Maybe someone could configure redirection for the affected pages, or at least try and get the Google index invalidated?

The redirects were actually there before - as we work to fix the docs outage
of this weekend, we'll bring them back. Apologies for the inconvenience.
