Unless and until there's a 3.3 or 4.0 final release, *3.2* is the "latest
Tomcat release", and deserves to be documented on the web site.

Fortunately, there's a real easy way to handle this -- it's called
subdirectories :-).

There's no reason to banish the current Tomcat released version, or any
other version that is being actively developed.  And it's quite easy to
arrange the user interface so that it's obvious which version you are
looking at (for example, including "Tomcat X.Y" in the header or footer of
the pages about that version).
