Hi all, Martijn, The gitbook has now been transfered to the adoptopenjdk organisation, the new location is https://www.gitbook.com/book/adoptopenjdk/adoptopenjdk-getting-started-kit/details, the providers of gitbook have made forwarding arrangements, any old links will get redirected to the new location.
Also with that I have also moved the adopt-openjdk-kiss-vagrant to the adoptopenjdk organisation (see https://github.com/AdoptOpenJDK/adopt-openjdk-kiss-vagrant). Please give it a whirl and get back to us if you have spotted any issues.
