So that users with old versions can go look up the old documentation, e.g. 
in Maven's case,
beta 10 users can look at the install docs and we can update them for 
1.0-rc1 as we go.

This is a great idea, but doesn't the 'dist' goal already include the 
site? If not, why not?

Also, there is a site:war goal too, so the site can easily be deployed in 
a web server.
