Dead link in ROOT Version 6.22 Release Notes

ROOT

Hello,
on this page, if you click on “here” in the first sentence (ROOT comes with C++ Modules enabled. More details about the technology found here), it points to https://root.cern/README.CXXMODULES.md. Yet this page does not exist.
Thanks for fixing

@couet Can you look into it?

actually I am not sure how this page is build. I guess from the release notes … let me see…

it comes from here:

README/ReleaseNotes/v622/index.md:- ROOT comes with C++ Modules enabled. More details about the technology found [here](../../README.CXXMODULES.md).

The link is still dead. Is it possible to redirect to the right location?

Hi @pamputt,
thank you for the report, this is now https://github.com/root-project/web/issues/331 . With the summer holidays there might be a bit of latency in fixing these kind of things, sorry about that.

In case other people stumble upon this, the correct location is https://github.com/root-project/root/blob/v6-22-00-patches/README/README.CXXMODULES.md .

Cheers,
Enrico

The link is dead because it was meant to be accessed from here. If it’s fixed, then this one might be dead instead. It needs to be linked to the full path as shown by Enrico to work in both cases.
