Looking for the old ActionScript Lite 3.x language reference

As the title says I'm looking for the old ActionScript Lite 3.x language reference.

It used to be available at http://help.adobe.com:80/en_US/as2/reference/flashlite/index.html however recently (within the last 4 months or so) it seems to have been taken down.

I understand this is an old and unsupported version of flash and as such I don't expect Adobe to support or host it anymore however I would love an offline download (something like what is offered for ActionScript 3 here).

I've already looked at the wayback machine but while it does seem to have some of the content most of it appears to be lost.

The docs team posted a static copy of the language reference here, and we added redirects for those old URLs:

Hope that helps!

Sorry about that.  At some point over the winter, our new documentation team conducted a pretty thorough purge based on the amount of traffic various documents received.  Apparently Flash Lite didn't make the cut, but we should definitely be providing at least a static copy of the language reference.

I'll see if I can get them to resurrect a copy in PDF form.

Thanks!
