No, it would be a pain as it will conflict with the backporting process.
If you find that *after backports* there are still lots of documentation
issues that do not exist in later versions, you can occasionally propose
a patch, but that should remain rare enough, and you'd need to get
prepared to hear that we'd sometimes rather not take it if it looks too
invasive. In anyway no spelling changes to code parts in maintenance
branches will be accepted (comments etc) as they're not user-visible.

Thanks!
Willy

The doc is entirely part of the project so it must be updated with the
project (hence why fixes are backported) but at the same time it doesn't
get any more fixes once the branch it belongs to dies. We do drop support
for old branches when there's almost nobody using them anymore. As you
noticed, usually we poll the list 6 months to 1 year upfront to ask if
someone still wants a given version to stay supported. If nobody cares
about it, it means nobody will read the old doc either thus it makes
sense not to backport old doc fixes.

as for stable branches, I can run spell check for every branch and send
appropriate PR for every branch.

would it be better compared to backporting ?

that's nice point to fix speling in earlier documentation as well.


side question, when some version become "unsupported", has its
documentation also retired in some sense ?
for example "here should be documentation for 1.2, but it is archived at
..." ?

Thanks Ilya. I re-tagged "DOC" so that we don't forget to consider
it for backporting, eventhough the parts on the makefile can be
dropped from backports if they cause trouble.
