Isn't there a newer version of this that also mentions precompiled 
binaries for Emacs 22, the beta test version?

I tried browsing the web page repositories at
http://savannah.gnu.org/project/memberlist.php?group=emacs
but I found nothing about Emacs 22 there. Is not that strange?

For information about precompiled binaries on MS Windows there is 
however information on EmacsWiki:
