broken links on doc pages

So, I'm all gung-ho about writing up an install doc for dual booting. Naturally, I head to the "Documentation" doc. Problem is, the links on there for the xml package are broken.

Where they be at?

(#gentoo wasn't exactly helpful on this one)

Which links are broken where?

http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xml-guide.xml has broken links pointing to:

http://www.gentoo.org/projects/xml.html
And
http://www.gentoo.org/projects/guide-xml-latest.tar.gz

Sorry. Those I can't fix. We've been trying to rewrite history here on the forums, automatically fixing links in old posts internally in the forum databases, but stuff on the main gentoo.org site is way out of my league.

Anyone know where the package is actually located?

Do you mean this (linked from the front page) or this?

Neither. I'm basically looking for "xml-guide-latest.tar.gz" The link to it found on http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xml-guide.xml is broken.... along with the link right next to it.

OK, I'm at class right now, so I can't really open it up and see what's inside, but I found the file xml-guide-latest.tar.gz. If you scroll down a bit further on the main Documentation page, you will find a link to XML Projects. In this document is a correctly linked xml-guide-latest.tar.gz.

Grr, windows sucks at opening tgz's. Oh well, I guess I'll have to take a look when I get home.

By the way, it would be greatly beneficial if I had the xml source to the gentoo x86 install guide. I'm assuming that it is packaged in the tgz, but I can't check right now. If it is not, where can I get ahold of it?
