Description

Groovy documentation does the cross-linking to groovy classes using absolute URLs like http://groovy.codehaus.org/api/ instead of relative URLs.

So, say, http://groovy.codehaus.org/api/ holds groovy 1.6.x documentation at some point and I have groovy documentation locally that is for 1.5.x or 1.7.x, then clicking on these absolute URL based links take me from my local 1.5.x or 1.7.x to 1.6.x by mistake.

(For example, if you click "Writable" link from java.io.File documentation from http://bamboo.ci.codehaus.org/download/GROOVY-GROOVY160J14/artifacts/build-385/documentation/groovy-jdk/index.html, it takes you to Writable doc of 1.6.6, which is currently on http://groovy.codehaus.org/api/.)
