Is there a good reason to keep http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.0/ around?

Occasionally someone in #svn will ask a question about what they've read
there.  (Apparently there are still many links to it).

Since that version of the book is so old, oughtn't we do one of the following:

* remove it entirely

* replace it with a redirect to the current book

* annotate each page with a big fat warning that says "This is laughably
  obsolete; please see http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.4/ instead"

?

A redirect sounds pretty reasonable to me, perhaps with a way to still
get to the old book (just not at the old URL)...?
