Yeah, that's a known glitch; the docs in the doc-latest directory aren't
generated with valid API links.  I've just checked in a change that will
make the doc-latest docs generate links to
    http://twistedmatrix.com/documents/TwistedDocs/current/...
which will fix the worst of the broken links (there are likely to still be
some, seeing as that is linking CVS howtos to the release version of the API
docs).

There's a seperate bug with the way links to top-level functions in modules
work (as opposed to classes and methods of classes) which means that
particular link will still not work for now.  It'll work when we do another
release, though, which is what matters.  doc-latest docs are just a preview
of the next release, after all, not the final product :)

Anyway, aside from that link, I take it you are happy with that FAQ entry? :)
