Ember.Controller doesn't exist?

I'm just getting started with Ember. I'm a little confused on some things, as the guides on the main site seem to indicate different ways of working.

In the main docs (http://emberjs.com/documentation/), it indicates that a controller should just extend an ordinary Ember object like this:

Ember.Object.extend();

Which works fine for me.

Then in the guide to using Routing (http://emberjs.com/guides/outlets/) it suggests that there is a Controller object type that you can extend:

Ember.Controller.extend();

This doesn't work for me, and if I simply try to console.log Ember.Controller, its undefined.

I'm using Ember version 0.9.8.1.

Should I worry about this, or should I just carry on with extending Objects as my controllers?

0.9.8.1 is aging, and unfortunately even the guides on the site are ahead of it -- use latest (at https://github.com/emberjs/ember.js/downloads) to keep up with the most current best practices.

Update: 1.0-pre is out (emberjs.com), so that is the best to use. The docs / guides have been brought up to date.

I think @pauldechov means the specific "latest" build which you can find here: https://github.com/emberjs/ember.js/downloads

But also keep in mind that the documentation and "latest" are not always in sync.
