used as the "beta" site for site upgrades

Moving to lugnet.org is a great idea. However, I think that making
lugnet.com a beta site could be confusing -- old links would get broken,
and people who are just guessing might pick .com. I think lugnet.com links
should eventually transparently redirect to the equivalent .org location.

(Something like "beta.lugnet.org" could be used for testing instead.
Having a test site is a good idea too.)

I think we have bigger fish to fry w/r/t LUGNET than moving it to .org. That's a
decision we can make later, once the new infrastructure for maintaining LUGNET
is in place.
