After reading the release numbering document it became slightly
clearer, and I did update the release page in an attempt to clarify it
a bit.  Please have a look at it when it's back up to see if it indeed

They are available but it's not advertised very well.  In the end I
found the 2010.2.0.0 release at
http://hackage.haskell.org/platform/2010.2.0.0/haskell-platform.cabal
