The documentation for the PAR module indicates that the user can go to the "PAR homepage at http://par.perl.org". However, going to http://par.perl.org is displaying the Perl6 home page (http://perl6.org).

It's almost as if par.perl.org and perl6.org are on the same web server and that web server is treating par.perl.org as an alternate URL for the perl6.org web site.

I'm not sure if this is a web hosting issue or if the documentation is pointing to old/invalid URL for the PAR home page.

Yeah, http://par.perl.org is gone for good. Hopefully I remove all remaning references
to it in the latest releases.

Some strange redirect.
