> Project: Beam

> https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/rc23610839204f2bba1ea148885ef9f496a3087a47d7bb25662a46bc5%40%3Cdev.beam.apache.org%3E
> Summary of the proposal:
> """
> You may have noticed that our API Documentation could really use some SEO.
> It's possible to search for Beam APIs (e.g. "beam dataframe read_csv" [1] or
> "beam java ParquetIO" [2]) and you will be directed to some documentation,
> but it almost always takes you to an old version. I think this could be
> significantly improved if we just make one change: rather than making
> https://beam.apache.org/releases/javadoc/current redirect to the latest
> release, we should just always stage the latest documentation there.
> To be clear I'm not 100% sure this will help. I haven't talked to any search
> engineers or SEO experts about it. I'm just looking at other projects as a
> point of reference. I've found that I never have trouble finding the latest
> pandas documentation (e.g. "pandas read_csv" [3]) since it always directs to
> "pandas-docs/stable/" rather than a particular version number.
> We should also make sure the version number shows up in the page title, it
> looks like this isn't the case for Python right now.
