Thunderbird has changed FTP directories, I've switched the developer page over to their comm-1.9.1 directories for now (and updated SeaMonkey to new-configuration builds while I was at it because they offer x86_64 and better L10n builds).

Checking in index.html;
/www/mozilla-org/html/developer/index.html,v  <--  index.html
new revision: 1.82; previous revision: 1.81
done

Robert, many thanks for fixing those links. I've cc'ed Jen so that she knows about them as well.

I have found another bad link.

http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/nightly/contrib/latest-trunk/
from
http://www.mozilla.org/support/thunderbird/bugs#latest

This one does not point to a nonexistent location, but it does point to a directory that is not useful in the context of the directions.  I felt that reporting it here would suffice since it is very similar, but if necessary, I can file a new bug for this occurrence.
