It was a complete overhaul of nsa.gov web site - outside of the SELinux
team's control.  I did ask for redirects but they haven't been
forthcoming.  But remember:  it is new and improved, don't let anyone
tell you differently.

In any event, the content is all still there, just rearranged and renamed.
Making all of the reports available in selinux-doc would likely be a
good idea.
