An "updated" link is
http://powerusersbbs.com/linapps/
But this is still from 1998.
This looks better:

This whole section on Elisp packages is totally rotten.
Norbert or anyone else, is there an updated list of web pages for
independent packages that anyone is maintaining? If not, can people at
least send lists of pages that they know about so we can update this info?
BTW Adrian, this whole page does not belong under Architecting XEmacs. We
need a separate page for links; if we already have one, we need to merge the
two. (It looks like there is no such page. Adrian, could you put a "Links"
section under the main sidebar, with a pointer to www.xemacs.org/Links/ as
well as pointers to the various Links pages, and add a page for Packages and
maybe one to include the other stuff from Architecting XEmacs?)
I think Architecting XEmacs should be nuked as it is out-of-date and I've
incorporated most everything into the internals manual. Once I'm sure there
is no remaining info here that isn't there I'll ask you to nuke it, and in
its place we should link to the "Future" section of the copy of the
internals manual that we keep online.

Sounds good.
We probably should move to online docs with named rather than
enumerated anchors.
I think makeinfo --html would do that, but I'd have to test that well
before a possible transition.
Enumerated anchors will cause permanent breakage after new nodes are
added to our docs.
A commit trigger for texi files and moving to online docs with named
anchors is an area I can see myself working on fairly short-term.
Moving away from the orphaned genpage is another issue I wanted to
tackle for a long time but haven't for lack of it.
Best regards,
Adrian

Uh, he did, by moving it to the Internals manual and by a stroke of
very good luck you were putting that online at the same time. Great
minds, same thought, or something like that. :-)

+1
But be careful with the FAQ, because the node names are an enumeration.

Gaack. That one, too?
Adrian, you know the technology better than anyone else at this point,
and maybe have some ideas about the technology you want to work with.
Why don't you write up and post a call for volunteers, here and on
c.e.x? There are always people who want to help but "don't know C" or
whatever.
Also, decide what you want to do, and if somebody plausible (you know,
the always helpful always around types like say Kilian Foth) says
they'll take one of your less-preferred tasks completely off your
hands, but only if they get to choose the technology, let's think
about giving it to them!
