Having only the 'latest' profile should be sufficient for most
developers, for each major version of a library of course (e.g. the
latest gtk 2.x and the latest gtk 3.x). Each symbol has the "Since:
<version>" information anyway. And by having the latest documentations,
developers are aware of new features and don't reinvent the wheel or
don't use APIs that are already deprecated since a later version.

But 'latest' should have two variants: stable and unstable.

Of course, having other profiles for specific versions of GNOME would be
nice, but the 'latest' profiles should be the default and recommended in
my opinion.
