I'd go with different subdirectories - it will be easier to handle (both
generate and later reference).

We could either have different subdirectories for each version or
include the version in the page name, as we do for some other
version-specific pages.

Speaking only on my own behalf of course, thank you. Editing the docs is
pretty straight-forward (https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/doc-guidelines/), so
I'd suggest jumping in and editing whatever you are comfortable with. I'm
coming across documents where someone else has already gone in and called
out or updated with R4.0 content, so thanks to those contributors as well!

What will be the naming convention for direct links? I can see sometimes
we'd want to link to the latest version of qvm-whatever, and other times
when we want to link to a specific major version.

Those pages are automatically generated from the man pages stored with
the tools' source code in their own respective repos, so any changes
to those pages in qubes-doc will be overwritten. Changes should be
made to the original files instead. That way, the changes will persist
when the qubes-doc versions are automatically generated.

I agree that the tool man pages should not be shared between 3.2 and
4.0 (but they probably wouldn't be anyway, due to the nature of the
system just described).

> 3. Some of these documents are pretty outdated. Should we have an

There are two categories of outdated documents:

1. Documents that we want updated (but that no one has updated yet).
2. Documents that are about old topics (but are otherwise good).

I don't think it would make sense to move documents of category 1 into
an archive section, since that would incorrectly suggest that we don't
want or expect them to be updated.

The old Fedora upgrade documents fall into category 2. However, it
looks like they (and perhaps the release notes for unsupported Qubes
versions) are the only major offenders visible in the main table of
contents. This is understandable, since a new version of the document
gets added each time there's a new version of the corresponding
software. I think it makes sense to handle these cases specifically,
by creating a page that collects all the versions of each one. I'll do
this now.

In general, it's worth thinking about whether we even want to keep
severely outdated category 2 documentation around. Does it have any
value anymore, or will it just produce misleading search results?
(Note that it will all remain permanently archived in the git revision
history, so it's mainly a question of visibility on the website.)
