Thanks, Chris.  Here's my take:

Long version (in a box?):

"This documentation is a work in progress.  While content is always being 
added, you may wish to refer to the _legacy documentation_ if the information 
you are looking for is not yet contained here."


Short version (as just a link):

_Legacy documentation_


You can pick which ever one fits with your idea of how it should look.
