 Review comment:
   Indeed, this is a static artifact that can't be directly updated by the community. For a complete solution, we definitely need them to be generated.
   
   On the other hand, the lack of website versioning is such a pressing issue that it has come up multiple times, even in past release votes, and is still actively causing confusion for many current and prospective users. We must be losing user base because of this.
   
   If the contributors could come up with a plan for a solution that's based on automatically generated content, and execute the plan before any of our next releases, I think we should accept this solution for now to address the immediate need for avoiding confusion.
