According to this article, the handbook was still available two days ago (May 13) but it doesn't seem to be the case anymore. A search of the site only turns up the 1999 edition of the handbook.

The article compares the LDS complaints with complaints received from the Chinese government, a Swiss bank, and the Scientologists. Quite the ensemble of provocateurs.

I wonder how the church convinced wikileaks to take down the page, in light of this quote:

Or did I just miss something?
Just curious but why does the church care? what kind of information would be had in the handbooks? Do we have a secret sauce to protect?
