Why should I convert URL's to absolute ones?
Because of the fact that it's an intranet most links are relative. Relative
links should just work fine in my setup. I will urge our contributors not to
use absolute URL's like "http://oldserver/somepage.html" but will ask them
to use "/somepage.html" instead. That should work on both
"http://oldserver/somepage.html" as well as "http://zope/somepage.html.

Can you send your product (or the name of the product you used).

I'm not interested in converting (absolute) URL's/HREF's in the document.
