Thanks!

.gz is not the same as zip. The .gz is source code in case you want to compile the hack yourself. All you need is the zip.
The downdate firmware is gotten from Amazon, like usual -- the only trick is instead of putting it in the root of the Kindle, you use the hack to load the firmware.
Since Amazon doesn't link to old firmware, you can download them from here as well:
