Is resolving 301 URLs on Yahoo's menu?

For Tim, of course...

Hi Tim,
Wondering if 301s showing their old URLs is something that might be fixed in the near future? I'm worried because my 301s (newly pointed to previously unlisted pages) are ranking well but I'm all too aware that if/when the 301 situation gets fixed, it could go two ways...
1. The 301 URLs get listed with the correct corresponding URLs and everybody's happy.
2. The 301 URLs get dropped, taking with it the corresponding pages they represented (this is my nightmare scenario).

Thanks for any light you can shed on this.

I spoke to Tim about this last week, and i think I'm right in saying that the problem is sorted, whether or not we are seeing it yet is another thing

We're definitely not seeing it yet, that's for sure.
But thanks for the word up.

Did he give you any info on how they're to be handled?

Flo baby,
This was covered in my presentation at Pubcon. I am sure there is a copy floating around or available for download.

Thanks Tim.

If anyone knows where I can find a copy of this, please stickymail me (or post here). I have no idea how to get my hands on that.
