Perhaps, by writing more colorful manuals more users could be attracted. :))

While on this topic, I googled for 15th edition of emacs.pdf but could
not find it. The 14th edition had blue hyperlinks but 16th is devoid
of it. A quick download link would be appreciated. Is there a page
where all the older official compiled version of emacs and its manuals
are stored ? Whats the command to check-out working sources for the
earliest compilable version of emacs ? I want to try that. I am
familiar with the following for example.

svn checkout http://software.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ software-read-only
