+1 for removing pre 2.0 documentation (as well as the entries from
https://beam.apache.org/get-started/downloads/)

Isn't it part of the beam-site changes that we will no longer check in
generated documentation into the repository? Those can be generated and
deployed independently (when a commit to a branch occurs), such as done in
the Apex and Flink projects.

I was told that Scott who was working in the beam-site changes is on leave
now and the migration is still pending (see note at
https://github.com/apache/beam/tree/master/website). Is anyone else going
to pick it up?

Thanks,
Thomas
