Done using an extra .htaccess file in the dfki directory.

We need to better distinguish (or merge!) between the Orocos toolchain and the
Orocos/DFKI toolchain. It's now very confusing, because the latter also
includes the former, at least when looking at the docs.

I want to give this time to grow and settle, but could you already extend the
section 'What’s the difference with the Orocos Toolchain ?' with:

"The Orocos Toolchain is the standard infrastructure required to build Orocos
components. It contains the real-time toolkit, typeGen/oroGen code generators
and supportive components for deployment and task browsing."

Then continue with the existing part: "The Orocos/DFKI toolchain is centered
around the use of oroGen for component writing, and the Ruby language for
system deployment and data analysis.... etc"

OK ?

Yes, I'll see if I can find it. I believe it is a rewrite rule.

The quality of the docs and tools is just amazing. I hope it will become the
standard tooling for all users.

There is a dead link to the bootstrap.sh file at
