Hi Lurie --

The wiki page you refenced says it is  *"archived for historical reasons
only". *We should probably state this a little differently. What this means
is that we're leaving the page on the wiki but it is not longer current.
Probably the only reason this page references blackdown.org was because it
was a open soruce java implementation at one time*:

*http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blackdown_Java

the predecessor to OpenJDK, now used  on most Linux systems, and not likely
for any other reason like a general software repository.

In summary, thanks for the note, but we will not be changing the link on
this old wiki page.

 We will, however, make some changes to the wiki page "archive"  message so
it's not confusing. These pages are not active and many of them do contain
outdated information.*
