It was just a curiosity I was asking about.
If the progress over the years made older versions obsolete it's 
understandable, but then, I don't see why is 5 still there and then 9, why not 
1,5,6 , then years later perhaps 5,6,7, and so on, and at the end, 8,9, for 
instance...
I mean, if 8 is obsolete, wouldn't 5 be "more" obsolete and die before?
Maybe I didn't get properly the differences between the versions, I need to get 
back to read more deeply...

Wouldn't it be obvious? Some are long obsoleted and some made to work around 
limitations of specific architecture. The v9 was then made to get the best from 
flexibility. It doesn't make much more sense to keep the obsoleted templates in 
software and hardware just for someone to be able to get back in time a bit :)
