I'm not sure about RFC but Firefox treats URL with extra slashes as different so visited links for <a href="http://www.erlang.org//doc/index.html">http://www.erlang.org//doc/index.html</a> will be different from visited links on
<a href="http://www.erlang.org/doc/index.html">http://www.erlang.org/doc/index.html</a>.<br>Not a big issue but nonetheless It seems strange to me that it is so difficult not to include that superfluous slash in "Top" links.
