The original link seems not working on browser(links toward the same page), this is a dirty hack to a absolute URL of the link to make the page work.
Hi @n0vad3v, thanks for pointing this out. The issue is the xref link is broken. I think @asamalik or @pbokoc could better advise on what the fix is. I don't have full context for this PR.
xref
Metadata Update from @jflory7: - Pull-request tagged with: GSoC
It appears the problem is that xrefs need the path. i.e.
xref:gsoc/2019/ideas.adoc
not
xref:ideas.adoc
@pbokoc are we wanting to use xrefs or links or do we have a preference?
@n0vad3v thank you for pointing this out. Would you mind redoing the PR based on feedback from @pbokoc ?
Yes, it needs the path as @bex says.
Please use xrefts, not direct links to the website — xrefs make it work in all the builds such as staging, local preview, and potentially PR preview when we have them.

@n0vad3v Thanks, change looks good! Merging. :clapper:
This should be visible in published docs in two hours at most if I remember correctly.

@n0vad3v great work, thank you. If you're feeling up to it, please consider helping us with a PR to fix more of these links. I am embarrassed to say it looks like most of the xrefs are broken. I am not sure how that happened/got missed.
We also have the opportunity to extend the site with data about Google Code In and Outreachy if you're interested in participating in that.
@bex Sure, I will fix more links in this repo on my spare time.
Recently I'm quite looking forward to join the GSoC project on Change Wrangler(Change Management Tool) and now there seems no reply on the mailing list. I've checked the Outreachy website and found that "The application period for the May 2019 to August 2019 round is closed as of April 2.", but I'm still glad to join the project if possible.
@n0vad3v the student application period ends on 9 April.
I encourage you to ping @bcotton and @sumantrom on IRC if you need additional feedback.
