Broken Link on Contribute page

Hi

the link to Textile Quick Reference 
<http://hobix.com/textile/quick.html> 
(http://hobix.com/textile/quick.html) on the contribute page 
(http://buildr.apache.org/contributing.html) seems to be broken.
I get a "server not found" if I click on that link

I think that Peter Cooper (Ruby Inside) has a mirror for most of why_'s
documentation.  I know he at least has the poignant guide to Ruby.

On Wikipedia I read that GitHub is collecting why's remains ("His 
projects have since been collected and centralized on the whymirror 
GitHub account.") and is also looking for new maintaners. It seems that 
it is not possible to get a stable link until the projects moved to the 
new leads and lost documentation is (hopefully) recovered.

Perhaps http://textile.thresholdstate.com/ ?

There's also http://redcloth.org/hobix.com/textile/quick.html but it  
has links about the disappearance as well.

This would be a symptom of why_the_lucky_stiff's departure from...the
universe.  We should probably pick a different textile reference to link to
(maybe one of the why_ mirrors).
