RibbonUI Documentation - Controls and Attributes

I'm aware that questions asking for "favorite off-site resources" are generally off-topic here, but I am having a great deal of difficulty locating the VBA documentation for Microsoft's RibbonUI/XML attributes.

I'm hoping that someone else who does RibbonUI development might have that link handy.

I think it was on MSDN, and contained a list of the control types and the allowable attributes. I can't find anything like that the past few days.

About a week or two ago, I did have the link and I thought I had bookmarked it. I am pretty sure it was on MSDN.

This is close to what I had been using:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb608623.aspx

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.office.tools.ribbon.aspx

But the list I had included controls, their respectively allowed attributes and callback procedures (e.g., it would indicate which controls could use getVisible, etc. and which control types shared common attributes with other control types.)

It was particularly useful for someone who is developing without VSTO or other GUI Ribbon Editor.

This was what I was looking for:

Descriptions, Attributes, and Child Information for the Ribbon Controls

Far too much to reproduce in full here, but as an example, this is the sort of information contained about the various UI controls: which attributes/callbacks are available, some basic documentation about what each does, which are shared with other controls, etc.
