Thanks Marco. Any tutorial that is executable should have the minimum
version indicated in its prerequisites section. Even so, we're not
testing tutorials against previous versions so while the info would be
stated we'd only really be testing against master, AFAIK.
I'm inclined to creates guides on how to generate legacy documentation
for each API, and remove the complexity of versions from the CI
pipeline. One-off generated API docs of old versions could be hosted,
but not part of the publishing and CI pipeline. This would be more
like PyTorch. https://pytorch.org/docs/versions.html We have to do a
bit better than that since we have so many language bindings with
varying degrees of support across versions. And we should make sure
that search works across versions and is clearly labelled, so you know
what you're looking at.
