connorgoggins edited a comment on issue #17798: [Website 2.0] Versioned Dropdown for Python API Docs URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/issues/17798#issuecomment-597314221 @leezu after discussing with @sojiadeshina, we decided that it's ok to have the setup instructions (build from source) only apply to master. Unique installation instructions (not building from source) for individual versions of MXNet are already supported and showcased on the website (for example, [installation instructions for v0.11.0](https://mxnet.apache.org/get_started?version=v0.11.0&platform=linux&language=python&processor=cpu&environ=pip&)). Regarding the content at https://mxnet.apache.org/features, creating a working version of each of the current code samples for the old releases of MXNet would not be possible. For example, the Horovod feature code example for distributed training is based on functionality only recently added to MXNet. If we were to add a general website dropdown, we would need to create entirely new feature code samples for each version, which would be outside the scope of this project. We scoped this project by prioritizing the minimum but most critical functionality that is broken today for any MXNet user coming to the website, with a maximum project duration of 4 weeks. Since >80% of MXNet developers use the Python API, it was decided that the project should focus on versioning the Python API docs. As mentioned above, a general website dropdown would require additional supporting content for each version (such as the [features page](https://mxnet.apache.org/features)), necessitating a more extended timeline and continued support/maintenance once the project is completed. The general website dropdown is something that can be added to the list of Future Work projects for Website 2.0, but I believe that the most critical priority (and the focus of this project) should remain fixing the Python API docs as soon as possible.
