Hi,

About documentation, I was wondering why are we keeping a stack of what has
been published about Tapestry 3 and Tapestry 4 if the site is about Tapestry
5 and previous versions are completely different.

I see normal to point people to Tapestry 4 documentation on a link
(eventually to tapestry 3 too) but I consider useless to add entries about
tapestry 4 articles on this website. This leads to misconception and
confusion. Most people who discover Tapestry 5 don't know tapestry 4 and
have no interest on it.

Why are we keeping all this entries ? is it to appear as a very mature
framework ? yearning for the past ?

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/TAPESTRY/Articles

I have links to Tapestry 5 articles, some of them in french. Can we add
articles in other languages, or we are just allowed to english ones ?

Katia
