Subject: [admin] url for w3c egov site?



omeone pointed out recently that the /2007/ in our URLs, like
    http://www.w3.org/2007/eGov/
   http://www.w3.org/2007/eGov/IG/wiki/Main_Page
   ... etc
is confusing and unnecessary.  (It comes from a W3C practice that made a
ot more sense when it started in 1998 than it does now.)  I've gotten
pproval to remove it.  The old URLs with /2007/ in them will be
edirected, so no links or bookmarks should break.
The question is, whic of these would we prefer:
      http://www.w3.org/eGov     (uppercase G)
r    http://www.w3.org/egov     (lowercase G)
Mixed case URLs tend to be harder to get right, and I don't think people
ill misunderstand "egov", so I have a mild preference for the second
ption.  Any thoughts?
