Please please do not lose sight of the comments I gave in [1].

Keep it simple because:

These are glue pages and as such are overhead pages and overhead work.
Currently it only takes about 20 minutes to edit all the old glue pages and create the new glue pages to add a new release.
EOL (End Of Life) delete type edits take even less time.

We publish the desktop help and the serverguide in over 60 languages,
but these glue pages are only in English. It needs to be as easy as possible for
someone that doesn't speak English to get to the content that will be delivered in their
language.
