Comment:

 This has been fixed. The ThornDoc now links to the thorn html pages.

 For this, the documentation has been regenerated using the current
 release. The other guides now also point to this new location.

 For reference: the documentation is to be updated/copied 'by hand' to the
 webserver at the moment. Better solutions exist, but this was the fastest
 way to have a working documentaiton. I could imagine using a repository
 for this, but since this is essentially generated files, this isn't ideal.

 I tried generating the documentation on the webserver itself, but the
 htlatex version available there is too old to handle it.

 The ideal solution would be to have a major upgrade of the server OS
 (anyway...), and then to generate new documentation on-the-fly if
 something changes within the release branch of the toolkit - so there
 would need to be some logic that filters out those changes from those on
 other branches.

 For now the documentation works and maintenance cost is minimal (re-run
 HTML generation locally and rsync that over to the webserver), so I'm
 closing this ticket.

 For reference too, this is the location on the webserver:
 /var/www/einstein/documentation
