Hi Bernard, Thanks for raising this issue. I can't remember why we didn't pursue a redirect when we started using creativecommons.org/ns; that was an obvious oversight on our part. I spoke with Aaron off-thread, and we've set up a redirect from web.resource.org/cc/ to creativecommons.org/ns#. Thanks again for raising the issue.
