I'm frankly not quite sure what that tarball is. I'm guessing that it's the documentation of gtkmm, glibmm (and gnomemm?) all rolled into one package, but I can't seem to download it either. The documentation can be built from the source tarballs, however. So if you already have the source, you may not need to download the documentation tarball. In addition, if you're using linux, it would probably be easiest to just install the -doc packages from your distribution (i.e. libgtkmm-2.4-doc in debian-based distributions, plus any other documentation you want, such as glibmm, gnomevfsmm, etc.). Then you can browse the documentation locally at, for example, /usr/share/doc/libgtkmm-2.4-doc/ (or wherever it actually gets installed). I believe Cedric's windows installer package gives the option to install documentation as well. On a related note, however, I've noticed that the website that hosts gtkmm is incredibly unresponsive, and this may just be a symptom of that. Sometimes when I'm browsing documentation online, it takes more than several minutes after clicking a link before the new page loads. It can get incredibly frustrating. As far as I know, the gtkmm website is hosted on sourceforge servers. Is there any possibility of hosting it on the gnome.org servers instead of sourceforge to make the site more responsive? Currently it's really painful for me to browse the documentation when I'm on a computer that doesn't have local documentation installed. Does anybody else experience this?
