broken link to Bruce Momjian's book

link from page: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/awbook.html
to page: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/aw_pgsql_book/index.html
or: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/aw_pgsql_book/aw_pgsql_book.sql

both give 404 not found

also, the following site has a link to download the pdf version as well,
http://chiara.dei.unipd.it/database/awbook.html

and it may be a good idea to make that available as well (the book is less
likely to change rapidly, and pdf is useful for static content).

You may be following an old link.  Try the link from the User's Lounge.

Don't know who they are - they're not a mirror site.

The PDF is gone, but the HTML will be there forever.  I had made a
mistake a few days ago with the HTML, but I have fixed that.

Only the PDF had to be deleted.   Bruce fixed the links and the empty
sql file so all should be well.  They are on the main site, if there's
a mirror that doesn't have the fixes yet we need to do something about
