Just a heads up that Read Me pages that were there before are now missing for several products that were updated. Such as:

If you want to report things to Daz you need to use a support ticket, Im afraid https://www.daz3d.com/help
Your link is missing the terminal 't' in start; with it in place, or the word 'start' dropped, I get the ever-unpopular "This page is a placeholder" message, As near as I can tell, the readme pages are dynamically generated andd cached for some length of time - and this page comes up if the readme is no longer cached. Just reload the page and (eventually) it generates. This one took four reloads; I've had some take as many as twenty(!) reloads.
Well, the t in start is indeed missing, but it wasn't in the link from the IM.
That link is now working again, here are a few more that are missing presently from my location. It could very well be a CDN issue.

For an example, this is what I see on the pages. (The last link)
"SWOLE for Genesis 8 Male: Hercules - Advanced Muscle Deformation
This is a placeholder for the product Read Me - this product has not yet been publicly released. Keep an eye on the New Releases section of the DAZ 3D Store for the product to become available, then check back here for more information."
I like to check the readme pages to see what's changed before I download the updates, and I've never seen this before. It's not that the page isn't there, it's that it's delivering incorrect information. Reloading doesn't change it.

I reloaded the tab for Swole twice and now have the readme. This is fundamentaly broken, but reloading the placeholder page will eventually get the readme.
Hmmm. Still looks like a CDN (Content Distribution Network) issue. Distributed internet content and database caching schemes cause all sorts of intetersting glitches.
And FYI I reloaded both of these more than 20 times:
http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/read_me/index/42089/start
http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/read_me/index/2539/start
This is what I'm still getting on both:
"Page Not Found
We are sorry, but the page you are looking for cannot be found:
If you typed the URL directly, please make sure the spelling is correct.
If you clicked on a link to get here, we may have moved the content.
If you are not sure how you got here, go back to the previous page or return to the homepage. "
Page not found is genuine no readme exists and needs to be flagged to Daz support.
