The smartics Softlink Tool allows to automatically create links to projects on the filesystem of the project site server. This makes it easy to create URLs to projects that are easy to remember. The name of the project, i.e. the artifact ID in Maven lingo, is used as a link to the latest version.
For instance, the current site of the recode-maven-plugin project is located at
https://www.smartics.eu/de.smartics.maven.plugin/recode-maven-plugin/LATEST
This is a link to the latest version. The folder
https://www.smartics.eu/de.smartics.maven.plugin/recode-maven-plugin/{VERSION}
provides the sites for all versions, e.g.
https://www.smartics.eu/de.smartics.maven.plugin/recode-maven-plugin/0.1.4
The latest version of the project can be accessed by
http://www.smartics.eu/recode-maven-plugin/
via a softlink created by the smartics Softlink Tool.
If you want to reference a specific version, you may use the full link above or simply the shorter and more easily to remember version
http://www.smartics.eu/recode-maven-plugin/0.1.4/
The smartics Softlink Tool generates these version links, too.
