Hi Ben, Must admit I haven't checked the old links. Indeed its surprising that others others hadn't followed the wrong trail. Changing domains and wiki's has thrown quite a few items in the mix, we have to just try and fix things we miss when they are found.
BTW, have you got things compiling with instruction on the new wiki? We also have 2.2 not far away, this fixes a number of problems seen in 2.0, so you might want to try out the 2.1.x dev series, I'll be building 2.1.8 tomorrow. Robert.
