To help with the migration I've just: - updated https://wiki.debian.org/qa.debian.org/GiftTag adding a deprecation warning at the top of the page - patched devscripts adding support for newcomer, retaining backward compatibility for gift (which will do both +gift and +newcomer for a while). See http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/devscripts.git/commit/?id=5c7978d4508fcb895463b2e9ce828e4dd8f79be4 - requested support for newcomer in how-can-i-help: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=769640 Don, what have you decided in the end for migrating old URLs pointing to the gift tag? Do you have a way to add redirects or should we just cope with the breakages? Personally, I care particularly about http://deb.li/debscreasy and I'd be fine with making the underlying URL a redirect to the corresponding "newcomer" query. But if that's not possible, I'll switch to a new short URL.
