I don't understand what is so hard about putting a date next to the edition number on the web site. Those of us who "use" OOo don't give a "rats a.." about the version number and can't remember it and shouldn't be expected to try to find it. A date lets us know that it recent or old and we can get back to our business. Having been a developer in previous life, I understand that developers live and die by version numbers. As a user, I want to know if I have the latest. If I don't, I'll go get it.
It's not difficult. It just takes time for someone to do it, especially in the long lists of chapters for the OOoAuthors guides (for which I am responsible). And some of us volunteers are so over-committed that we just don't get around to the "nice to have" things. I agree it's a good idea to have the dates and plan to add that to the OOoAuthors page... I've often wanted that myself on other parts of the OOo website... but to me it's a "nice to have" compared with some of the other things that need doing.
