Hi lbrtchx, you can download Apache Jena from: http://jena.apache.org/download/ (there is a README file in it).
Jena has moved to the Apache Software Foundation and it is not a TLP (i.e. top level project). The Apache Jena website is http://jena.apache.org/ (old links elsewhere should be considered obsolete and might be inaccurate). What isn't change is that Jena is a Java library you can use to deal with RDF data and as all the other Java libraries to use it you just need to have the all the jars which come with Jena as well as their dependencies in your CLASSPATH. If you find errors in the documentation on http://jena.apache.org/ you can help out pointing us at the errors, suggesting a solution and (this is our favorite option) submitting patches (yes, documentation is in Subverson, here [1]. Books cannot be updated, some books have associated websites though (those can be updated or enhanced with 'errata corrige' sections. However, once people are pointed to the correct website (i.e. http://jena.apache.org/) and they are Java developers they should not have problems. There might be Jena users who aren't Java developers: they can use the command line programs included in Apache Jena or install a SPARQL server such as Fuseki and use SPARQL 1.1 to load/modify/query their RDF data. Last but not least, we need to fix the links to the Java examples in the tutorial titled: "An Introduction to RDF and the Jena RDF API". You can find the examples here [2].
