But this site has a whole history of yanking code and making life difficult for some of us. So I'm not surprised.

I think this is a very valid point. It would be very easy to make it clear they are old, unsupported, arhcived modifications. Having it not possible to reply etc. makes this even more clear.

Personally I have no need to download them 3.0.x hacks. but I can only imagine that it could be beneficial keeping them downloadable to those that might need them down the track.
