Rudi was working a new solution.  That URL should have been redirected to docs.fp.o, I think, where you could make the selection on format and language.  It's still a work in progress...  We could probably put the Release Notes specific links on that page, though.

To point to a specific format and language all guides should be in the following format:  guide/f##/lang/format.  This is not necessarily true for ALL documents so you'll have to check the link to verify.  Hopefully F13 will use that format for all docs, though.
