Chesnay Schepler commented on FLINK-17551:
------------------------------------------
This is intended so we can make updates to the documentation for an existing
release.
I can see the problem but it will be a pain to change this, while retaining the
option of updating the docs.
We'd have to create dedicated branches for each released version and
cherry-pick documentation fixes an additional time.

> Key: FLINK-17551
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-17551
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Project Website
> Affects Versions: 1.10.0
> Reporter: Xintong Song
> Priority: Major
>
> When browsing Flink's documentation on the project website, we can choose
> from both the latest snapshot version and the stable release versions.
> However, it seems the documentation of stable release version is actually
> built on top of the snapshot version of the release branch.
> E.g., currently the latest stable release is 1.10.0, but the documentation
> described as "Flink 1.10 (Latest stable release)" is actually built with
> 1.10-SNAPSHOT. As a consequence, users might be confused when they use
> release 1.10.0 and some latest documentation changes meant for 1.10.1.
> [This
> comment|https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/11300#issuecomment-624776199]
> shows one of such confusions.
