Comment:

 First, at this time 2015.foss4g.org seems to be a *redirect* set up at our
 DNS Registry to http://foss4g2015.wordpress.com.

 So I guess we need to configure a CNAME record to foss4g.cafe24.com
 instead of a redirect so our domain is maintained as the main one. Then
 probably some configuration will be needed on cafe24 side.

 -----

 Second, http://www.foss4g.org is now a list of links to previous editions.
 Do you want to override that page with a redirect to 2015? We shouldn't do
 a reverse proxy to 2015 for SEO reasons. Google and other searching
 enginens doesn't like that the same web pages are offered by different
 URLs so a redirect (301 code) it's preferred.
