Hey @carandraug, thanks for posting and proposing a fix. Where did you find the announcement about the new URLs? Do you know if this new address is the official long-term address for the dataset? |
I am the sysadmin of those systems.
Yes, this will be the official long-term address for those datasets. There will be redirect in places from the old URLs to the new ones but other issues are delaying the setup of such redirects. |
|
Is there a particular reason for the delay here which is just a URL fix? If you need a document clarifying my authority as the maintainer of those systems, can you clarify what sort of statement you require? |

@carandraug when I try http://host.robots.ox.ac.uk/pascal/VOC/voc2009/VOCtrainval_11-May-2009.tar I'm getting redirected to https://www.robots.ox.ac.uk/~vgg/projects/pascal/VOC/voc2009/VOCtrainval_11-May-2009.tar , not the the thor domain. Can you clarify which one is the official redirection? Thanks!

That is only the first redirect. If you try to download https://www.robots.ox.ac.uk/~vgg/projects/pascal/VOC/voc2009/VOCtrainval_11-May-2009.tar, there is as second redirect to https://thor.robots.ox.ac.uk/pascal/VOC/voc2009/VOCtrainval_11-May-2009.tar. The reason for this two redirects is that host.robots.ox.ac.uk hosted the evaluation server and the website. The website was under the host.robots.ox.ac.uk/pascal location. host.robots.ox.ac.uk now only runs the evaluation server, and the website was moved to www.robots.ox.ac.uk/~vgg/projects/pascal. But after moving the PASCAL VOC website, we moved the large datasets to the thor server, hence why two redirects. While I could have place all redirects in host, I would need to repeat them in www.robots... to accommodate relative links in the website.

Hey @NicolasHug! You merged this PR, but no labels were added. |
The location for the PASCAL VOC datasets 2005-2012 has changed as well as the location of the project website. This PR updates the URLs for the new locations. The previous system
host.robots.ox.ac.ukis no longer online.
