Hi folks,

First: http://plonemanual.twinapex.fi/ == Awesome!

Mikko's comment about some content being "old"
and "confusing" is spot-on. Version soup.

I would really like to see documentation separated
by version moving forward, e.g.,
["/docs/3.3/*", "/docs/4.0/*","/docs/4.1/*", "/docs/5.0/*"]

When a new version rolls out, copy with the previous
version (if appropriate), stick it in a new folder,
and make changes where appropriate. I believe this
approach works more like people think. Well, at
least it work more like I think. Disk space is cheap.
Let's take advantage of it. :-)

Other successful open source projects do this
(apache and python come to mind) and it "just works".

I believe http://plonemanual.twinapex.fi/ is a perfect
candidate for this.

Opinions?


/me ducks for cover
:-)
