Problem/Motivation

Drupal 8 still has references to http://drupal.org/project/themes & http://drupal.org/project/modules

Those links work, but they aren't really all that useful. From a D8 install, why not direct them specifically to actively maintained Drupal 8 modules so that users have a good place to start?

Right now both redirect to https://drupal.org/project/project_module & https://drupal.org/project/project_theme

The prior taxonomies (to search & taxonomy) are now broken. Having a few hard coded short redirects would be good, but we should be providing people as useful a start as possible.

I think I would prefer an Apache alias on Drupal.org that simply points:

http://drupal.org/project/themes/D8 to https://drupal.org/project/project_theme?f[0]=im_vid_44%3A13028&f[1]=im_...

http://drupal.org/project/modules/D8 to https://drupal.org/project/project_module?f[0]=im_vid_44%3A13028&f[1]=im...

As the URLs from Solr are just too long and ugly.. But still it should be simple & give folks not all results, but the best results.

Steps to reproduce

Proposed resolution

direct them specifically to actively maintained Drupal modules so that users have a good place to start?

Remaining tasks

User interface changes

API changes

Data model changes

Actually, I think this is better as a bug because:
core/modules/search/search.module
core/modules/taxonomy/taxonomy.module

both point to outdated filters from the old D6 drupal.org site:
?filters=tid%3A105
?filters=tid:71&solrsort=sis_project_release_usage%20desc

Cleaning up old bugs.

The URLs that lead to marking this a bug have since then disappeared as far as I can tell. The references to http://drupal.org/project/modules have changed to https://www.drupal.org/project/modules but are still there, so moving this back to a feature request.
