That was pretty sweet. However, it kind of goes to the point of

not accurate for my compiler.
I'm not saying the language shouldn't evolve, I'm just saying
it might make sense to keep compatibility changes to every 6
months or a year. Then you could keep the old documentation
around for the old version, and create new documentation for
the new version and no matter which version someone is using
they would have documentation (within limits.)
The website is *supposed* to keep documentation for old versions
around, and allow you to select them using the drop-down menu at
the top-right:

However, it looks like this feature is currently broken, since
the archived documentation stops at version 2.081. I've filed an
issue in the appropriate repository [1], so hopefully that will
be fixed soon.
