what needs to be done in order to change / modify url-rewriting ?

I want to change News url to something else so that news doesn't appear in the url link.

Lets say i want to change "News" to "abc"

Till now i did these changes:

In UrlRewriting.config file

<add name="NewsDetailsRewrite" virtualUrl="^~/news/([0-9]*)-([\w-]*)\.aspx(?:\?(.*))?"
         rewriteUrlParameter="ExcludeFromClientQueryString"
         destinationUrl="~/news.aspx?newsid=$1&amp;$3"
         ignoreCase="true" />

To this

<add name="NewsDetailsRewrite" virtualUrl="^~/abc/([0-9]*)-([\w-]*)\.aspx(?:\?(.*))?"
         rewriteUrlParameter="ExcludeFromClientQueryString"
         destinationUrl="~/news.aspx?newsid=$1&amp;$3"
         ignoreCase="true" />



In admin section >    Configuration   >   Global Settings  > SEO/Display

News url rewrite format:  {0}News/{1}-{2}.aspx

to this

News url rewrite format:  {0}abc/{1}-{2}.aspx

I tested these change and it worked so i just want to know is these changes enough or i am missing something else also so that i don't face any problems in future...

That's enough to modofy URL-rewrting rules

How can we update the URL rewrite to use .html instead of .aspx?
