http://www.crosswire.org/sword/bugs/ hasn=E2=80=99t been used in a =

We're using the SourceForge bug tracker.  Our project page is
http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/sword. =
<http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/sword.%A0>  Our bug tracker is at
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=3D109516 =
<http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=3D109516&group_id=3D9516&func=3Dbro=
wse> &group_id=3D9516&func=3Dbrowse.

I just took a look at http://www.crosswire.org/sword/bugs/ . Is this =
page still in use? If not, I need to remove the link to it in the win32 =
helps.

BTW: the bug section of those helps looks like this:

Please submit all bug reports to:=20
sword-bugs@crosswire.org=20
Or
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=3D109516 =
<http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=3D109516&group_id=3D9516&func=3Dbro=
