Thks for the link, will use while the official one is broken. Still, I would
double-check if this is actually being worked on, my perception is that it
has always been wrong during "Oracle era". I know this is minor detail among
all other stuff that had to be migrated, but IMHO this is a fairly important
link to be broken.

PS: is there any other way to report problems like these that would not
require signing to this list?
