[Using Sakai] Resource links - updated on move?

[Matthew Jones]

Yeah, sure you probably could run an app like
https://code.google.com/p/linkchecker/ on your own instance and get a
report, but then you'll have to go fix everything manually.

One of the feature requests on that page was to convert that to a web
application to run it on the page so I guess it could be made to be more
embedded in something like Sakai but it would take some work for sure. It
doesn't look like this project hasn't been updated in a while, and I've
never personally run it. Probably would be nice, especially if it could
scan content hosting to try to find the fixed links, but adding in more and
more features for sure would add to development time.
