[maemo-community] replacing maemo.org:80 with www.maemo.org:80 and planet.maemo.org:80 so that site: searches work

I can't do any useful site: searching with google because planet
content is hosted on the root domain, and even if planet wasn't on
that domain, it doesn't help because i can't exclude other domains.

what sort of consensus or decision making would be needed to make such changes?

this came up because i was trying to find out if mxr is linked to from
maemo.org.

in firefox (minefield) i entered "mxr site:maemo.org" into the search
field and got:
http://www.google.com/search?q=mxr+site%3Amaemo.org&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a

Basically, there are bugs that mention MXR and some planet bits, and
MXR mentions itself, but there's no way for me to find out that the
developer page links to MXR.

by comparison.

"mxr site:www.mozilla.org"

this shows that hit #2 (developer) clearly links to MXR.
