Ichthyostega 7d237647d4 DOC: normalise towards a single form of gitweb-URL
In the past we allowed a lot of leeway when referring to our
web-interface to the Lumiera Git repositories (git.lumiera.org/gitweb)
Unfortunately this caused the AI scraper bots »out there« to capture
millions of URLs for all the different flavours of spelling them out.

And now they haunt our website and try to scrap that content again and again;
even while we effectively prevent that kind of abuse, rejecting those
ongoing attempts at content-scraping causes a dangerously high amount of traffic.

With this changeset, all cross references in the documentation section
are rewritten to the only remaining valid form of that Gitweb URL.

Development Status
==================
:Date: {localdate}
Current Phase::

-> link:{ldoc}/technical/infra/Release.html[Release]
Objectives
----------
At the current stage of development, the focus is primarily on the
overall integration of fundamental functionality at all levels of
the code base. A sequence of
link:{ldoc}/design/governance/integration.html[Integration steps]
has been defined, each driven by some pivotal functionality,
to be implemented as a »Vertical Slice«.
Our Goal is to integrate an ongoing render process, with a render
pipeline in the engine and video output in the UI.
- A network of Render Nodes can now be built and invoked [green]#✔#
- 🗘 The provisional buffer memory manager needs to be improved next,
to resolve a mismatch between the _Buffer Protocol_ and the
_Output Sink Protocol_, so that the target buffer of an output
sink can be used seamlessly within the Render Node network.
- Another point to be resolved next is to decide upon the design
of the _Vierwer Output Connection_, which shall be used as an
anchor point for the running playback process.
- Next we need a solution how to integrate some _Video Output_ solution
into the Lumiera UI (-> see the link:/research/videoDisplay/[recent research]),
so that it can be represented as an _Output{nbsp}Slot_.
- After that, we could look into the integration of _Job Planning_
this _Output Slot_ with the _Scheduler_.
- Once this has been accomplished, it should be possible to fill in
the remaining parts into the _Play Process_ implementation.
- Furthermore we still need some provisional solution how to
trigger all this new functionality from the UI.
