A useful trick to know is that if you replace the version number
with "current", you'll get to the latest version most of the time
(sometimes the name of the page is changed between versions, too, but
this isn't that frequent).
The docs pages could perhaps benefit from an auto-generated note saying:
"The current version of Pg is 8.4. This documentation is for version
8.2. Click [here] for documentation on the current version."
... or something to that effect. It'd be a nice (and more user-friendly)
alternative to url twiddling when searches reveal docs for an old
version, and might help push the /current/ pages up in search rank too.
In addition, why not use symlinks so that the current version is simply
called "current", as in
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/sql-insert.html
If you google for "postgres insert", you get this:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/static/sql-insert.html
The problem is that Google ranks pages based on inbound links, so older
versions of Postgres *always* come up before the latest version in page
ranking.
Since 2009 you can deal with this by defining the canonical-version.
