Hi Scott,

For now I think it'd be nice to have the 404 page as you say, just a
header, big search field, and links to Download, Wiki, and Get Involved.

I wanted to make this nicer but super busy at the moment with the open
movie and bconf, doing urgent fixes only at the moment.

Thanks a lot for working on this!
