Somebody wants the url to be http://example.com/2010/index.html.  They
didn't say why, they just want it.  I originally proposed a redirect
in the web server, but they think they want /2010 in the address bar.

I wondered if a route might be something to investigate, but I'm not
100% clear on how to reroute requests from /2010 to /twenty_ten.  Will
a special route take care that link_to :controller =>
'twenty_ten', :action => 'foo' generates an html link like
http://example.com/2010/foo ?

Thank you.

Rich
