Description Petras Petkus CLA 2016-01-18 04:28:53 EST
Links to the archived Eclipse releases documentation are broken at http://www.eclipse.org/documentation/. The link to Indigo release documentation holds a link to Juno instead, while links to documentation of Helios and Galileo releases redirect to Juno.

I created a Gerrit change to update this: https://git.eclipse.org/r/66145


 while links to documentation of
> Helios and Galileo releases redirect to Juno.

Webmaster, are these redirects a bug or they redirect to Juno because we don't have a documentation site for these release?

If so, should we remove them from this page?
Comment 3 Eclipse Webmaster CLA 2016-02-11 14:05:01 EST
We only keep infocenters for the last 4 releases(current,previous,archived,really archived) running.  Infocenters for even older releases are shut down, and the docs page update to point at the 'oldest' currently active infocenter.

So it's not a bug.

I like the idea of removing these old links because it simplifies things.

-M.
