[pydotorg-www] Two problematic pages

There are two pages that I'd like to get rid of, but am dithering about:

* http://www.python.org/doc/newstyle/ claims:

      Unfortunately, new-style classes have not yet been integrated into
      Python's standard documention. Fear not, however; many people have
      worked to provide useful information on creating and using new-style
      classes.

  Is this still true?  Are the resources linked from that page still useful?

* A lot of the ports on http://www.python.org/download/other/ are very
  old.  (2.1, 2.4, even 1.5.2, etc.).  I think most people will just
  search for "Python <OS name>" and not come to python.org to poke
  around.  Can we just drop the page completely?
  
Now that I look at it, http://www.python.org/download/linux/ doesn't
really have a lot of content; maybe it can be deleted, too.
