Dev docs sites for past releases of nova (2011.1) now 404 error

The apache configuration has:
        DocumentRoot /srv/docs/nova/doc/build/html/

        Alias /2011.2 /srv/docs/nova/2011.2

So it looks like at some point someone copied the main tree (/doc/build/html) to a sibling directory (2011.2) , and added the alias to the apache configuration. I added this to fix the immediate issue (since 2011.1 was still there):

        Alias /2011.1 /srv/docs/nova/2011.1

But this seems like an arbitrary and manual process. What is the current process for creating a new version of the docs (we should have 2012.1 now, right)?

Moving forward, we have a whole system for generating docs from tags and giving them a subdir. 2011.1 was created before we moved to the tag system, so we should probably just copy it into the new docs site.

Something similar is going on with swift -

What's interesting is that I can get to http://docs.openstack.org/developer/swift/1.7.4/development_auth.html -- so it seems like this one would represent Folsom docs. Where are the Essex ones though?

Thanks for looking into it.

The current in tree documentation builds should on tag releases copy the docs to http://docs.openstack.org/developer/project/$VERSION. This will cover everything >= Folsom I believe. If we want the older stuff we will need to run the doc builds manually and feed Jenkins the appropriate information to make it build old versions.

We are publishing docs to http://docs.openstack.org/developer/project/$VERSION for everything >= Folsom. We have deprecated the stable branches older than Folsom so will not be publishing docs from these versions to docs.openstack.org/developer.
