Research direction
Review the release-note pages for cloud releases 0.6.0 through 0.8.3, starting with the broken download links and the listed GoGrid link. Determine the appropriate replacement or removal for each dead link, then run the documentation link check; done means these pages no longer report the listed broken links.
