Delete docs for obsolete versions? #103

Open gk-brown opened 2 years ago

gk-brown commented 2 years ago

My project currently has 1.0.x, 1.1.x, and 1.2.x releases:

https://javadoc.io/doc/org.httprpc/kilo-client/latest/index.html

I really only need the Javadoc for the latest maintenance release within each minor release. Is there a way to delete docs for the other versions? If not, would you consider adding a feature like this?

I wonder what would be your use case to deliberately remove previous versions?

Would you remove previous versions from maven repo as well? If not, then it still doesn't stop people using old version right?

For semantic versioning, APIs shouldn't change in maintenance (or "patch") releases. So technically the Javadoc should not change either. This suggests that keeping Javadoc for every patch version is not strictly necessary.
