Makes sense but we should try to get rid of inaccurate stuff and stuff
that makes it look like the project is not maintained.
This is particularly and obviously true with pages that talk about
"current" versions, roadmaps and outstanding issues.
The page in question was very explicit about version 4.6 being current
and duplicated the ideas that were contained in a page about release
policy that was not version specific. It did have some nice graphics
that might be worth incorporating into the other page.
The structure of the wiki needs a bit of thought and cleaning up. It
needs to be looked at from a "marketing" point of view rather than a
developer point of view. Development policies need to be included since
they are important but they need to be written in a version-free point
of view and need to be structured in a way that a first time visitor
will have an easy way to find what they need and will find as many pages
that paint a favourable view of the project as is possible without lying.
The details about version numbers and release policies are not top of
mind with a person doing an evaluation of Cloudstack and its
alternatives but is critical for developers.

My point was simply that if it has good ranking already, we should
update the page so we can put relevant information there so it can be
easily found. Just trying to leverage it in our favor is all.

SEO ranking is great but putting up stuff from 3 or 4 releases in
the past blows away all of the SEO benefit when someone actually
goes to the page.
The reader is left with the impression that the product is not
actively supported (actively developed but not supported)
I am not sure that SEO raking makes any difference when the number
of alternative search results is so small.
How many "products" will rank ahead of Cloudstack for
virtualization orchestration?
Is there a list of search keywords for which we want to get a high
ranking?
Who are the competitors and what keywords should they win?

As a project, especially around the topic of 'releases', I
assume we should
leverage any SEO placement we can use. I don't have specific
content I
think we should put there, but if it is well placed, it would
make sense
that we put some detail on the page. We don't have to, but I
figured I
would mention it.

Is there a reason we deleted it and didn't just update

been good to take advantage of the SEO that page
already had working for
us
and just update the content to represent the latest
details. No?
