The URL have been changed to http://www.julienthomas.eu/bugs/pdf/.
However, the proposed upgrades were valid for
- Linux 2.6.20-hardened-r5 (2007 !)
- net-mail/courier-imap-4.0.6-r2, options berkdb gdbm ipv6 nls (selinux)
(as stated on the PDFs).

I will, if I have time, look at the new policies to see if the updates are still valid.

Best Regards,
Julien Thomas
