Hi,

I was adviced to add some comments to this bug regarding the issue that I see with the documentation:
""""
n the last days I'm looking around for an old link that I had on how to
configure "Provider networks with Open vSwitch"in Juno release.
I had the link
http://docs.openstack.org/kilo/networking-guide/scenario_provider_ovs.html
that now give s a nice "404"
Going to the Juno documentation - http://docs.openstack.org/juno/ - one
can lcearly see that under the "Networking Guide" there is a lin
pointing to the "wrong" release -
http://docs.openstack.org/kilo/networking-guide/, from where one can
reach the:
http://docs.openstack.org/kilo/networking-guide/scenario_provider_ovs.html

None of the documents under the " Operations and Administration Guides "
point anymore to the "juno" version.

As we have still a/some testbed with the Juno version I would like to
ask you if you know of a place where "obsoleted" documentation is moved.
As there are still the installation guides for this version I would
expect that at least a trace of the Operation & Administration ones is
kept.
At least as vintage collection I would like to be able to read it once
more
"""

Hope this could improve the documentation by making people aware that it's not a good thing to make dissapear documentation. Versioning, archiving, whatever method you can think good to keep a bit of history would be very much welcome.

Thank you,
Cristina
