FYI not necessary to propose docs-only changes in STATUS, they are CTR.

Ouch, I already backported the changes.
Should I revert all that?

So am I, since there are different manuals for 2.2, 2.4 (and even 2.5).

Just in case, removal of compatibility notes against 2.3.x has been 
discussed a few months ago.
See http://marc.info/?t=138619128300001&r=1&w=2

No real concensus about it.
I'm still +1 for removing these references.


I'm not sure that the compatibility notes are really consistent in the 
current tree. I am quite sure that some configuration options have been 
added or enhanced without stating in which version it happened.
I have in my TODO list to check, for each 2.4.x releases, which options 
have been added/modified and if the corresponding <compatibility> notes 
have been added in the doc. I've not taken the time yet to go thru all that.

The only example I have in mind right now is r1523242 where the 
'change=no' parameter has been added to 2.4.7.
Doc has been updated in r1523325.


Best regards,
CJ

It seems that people do not really let these kinds of doc changes
linger in trunk.  They usually get ported back almost immediately.

Oh, I see, thanks for the information.
Should I (or one) backport it if no one else screams for a while then?
