{Desktop 12.10 Topic] Holistic approach to Ubuntu documentation

Hi,

just a thought. For wiki content that is past EOL whilst having current
information, possibly make a child page that is <wikiname>EOL with a link
from the 'currently supported' page available so that we do not clutter the
'current' page up with 'old' stuff, yet anyone can still easily access it?

It seems best of both worlds. Yes, I know it means that people moving EOL
stuff to the EOL sub page, but faced with a page of EOL information
alongside current versus deletion, I think it warrants a bit of discussion.
I'm dead against deleting stuff, for example - some one may actually still
be running 8.10, and see no reason to change. We should not 'force' them to
change because we have deleted the information resource.

Regards,

Phill.
