Re: [xwiki-devs] [Brainstormoing] Removing old "since" from xwiki.org

If we were to export PDFs of documentation at a certain version than I would agree with this. Currently my feeling is that we are deleting information and not all our users are on LTS or recent versions. I agree is important to have the most simple and clear documentation, yet it's bad that we don't provide versioned documentation. Also, even cleaning now, it's a task that is very big and the info will get deprecated in a year. If the language we use is using present tense, users will still be confused 1 year later and still would not know about what version that documentation is talking about. Especially since there is no way we could validate documentation on year release. I don't have a clear solution for this problem.
