It would help to add a sitemap (and the robots.txt required to reference it)
for flink.apache.org and ci.apache.org (for /projects/flink)
You can see what Tomcat did along these lines -
http://tomcat.apache.org/robots.txt references
http://tomcat.apache.org/sitemap.xml, which is a sitemap index file pointing to
http://tomcat.apache.org/sitemap-main.xml
By doing this, you can emphasize more recent versions of docs. There are other
benefits, but reducing poor Google search results (to me) is the biggest win.
E.g. https://www.google.com/search?q=flink+reducingstate
<https://www.google.com/search?q=flink+reducingstate> (search on flink reducing
state) shows the 1.3 Javadocs (hit #1), master (1.6-SNAPSHOT) Javadocs (hit
#2), and then many pages of other results.
Whereas the Javadocs for 1.5
<https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.5/api/java/org/apache/flink/api/common/state/ReducingState.html>
and 1.4
<https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.4/api/java/org/apache/flink/api/common/state/ReducingState.html>
are nowhere to be found.
