Maybe I was unclear.  The archive.org URL works for me, the skip-vpn.org
one doesn't (neither does skip.org).

I must note that I tried the archive.org URL last night again upon
seeing your email and was very surprised because it told me that that
URL wasn't archived -- in fact none of skip-vpn.org was archived.  Today
it works again.

When you say "the site", which site are you referring to?

Ok. Then yes, I read you wrong.

I'm unsure if linking to archive.org is a good thing. I guess it's not
likely to go away, but my original comment remains - perhaps we should
just remove it and let people google for the info if they need it.

Strange.

I guess the question is: how valuable is it to change the hardcoded
fallback DH parameters?  Surely if someone wants to use different DH
params, they can set them in the documented files.
