Nick Boldt commented on TOOLSDOC-310:
-------------------------------------

[~maxandersen] If you don't like having a backup of the server's HTML content via https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-download.jboss.org then I challenge you to propose a better alternative. 

Meanwhile, for docs.jboss.org, we ought to have a similar solution to back up the contents on the server so that 

a) the content can be developed offline and pushed to the server, and 
b) in case of accidental overwrite / server death, it can be recovered.

If not a github repo, then what?

> for some reason https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-documentation/pull/48 removed the latest link assuming latest is used to point to the nightly build.
> That is not what it is for.
> It is to point to the latest docs made available.
> This link (before: http://docs.jboss.org/tools/latest/) was used to point to the last latest documentation.
> I believe this should be put back since this is how other docs refer to the latest version.
> We could even go so ar to create a docs.jboss.org/tools/4.0, docs.jboss.org/tools/3.3 etc. folder each with their /latest link in them.
> Latest links are trivial to make with sftp as part of the release upload anyway thus should be all possible to script if it is too cumbersome to remember.
