That's exactly what we plan to do for the time being, archiving pdfs and 
html. But for me it doesn't really solve the fundamental problem. We'd 
love Floss Manuals to be the repository for all our documentation, not 
just the most recent.

I think it's important that we can let our community and documentation 
team retrospectively improve old manuals, update old links (great 
example being our new mailing lists and support forums - we still help 
folks with an old version :) ) etc. I think there's also some use in 
comparing versions side by side and perhaps even updating multiple 
versions at once...

Okay, well, I'm in 'wouldn't it be nice' land now, but consider it a 
feature request for Booki ;)

Best, Adam T

p.s. I have maintainer options now - thanks!
