Your response rests on a fallacy, in any case. Maintaining a list of release versions is going to be a PITA no matter what we do. Especially when we have four or five divergent timelines. Moving these to the docs only consolidates the maintenance into one file. This will still require care and attention, and I believe it is appropriate of me to remind people of that. The current state of affairs is a complete mess.
