Cleaning up documentation from website

We haven't cleaned up the version documentation in a long time:

lrwxrwxr-x  1 omalley   hadoop  11 May 11 20:14 current -> r0.20.203.0
drwxrwsr-x  7 cutting   hadoop  29 Nov 24  2008 r0.14.4
drwxrwsr-x  6 cutting   hadoop  22 Jan 23  2008 r0.15.2

drwxrwsr-x  7 nigel     hadoop  51 Sep 18  2008 r0.18.1
drwxrwsr-x  8 nigel     hadoop  52 Dec 11  2008 r0.18.2
drwxrwsr-x  8 nigel     hadoop  52 Jan 30  2009 r0.18.3
drwxrwsr-x  8 nigel     hadoop  58 Dec 11  2008 r0.19.0
drwxrwsr-x  8 nigel     hadoop  58 Feb 24  2009 r0.19.1
drwxrwsr-x  7 tomwhite  hadoop  57 Jun 30  2009 r0.19.2
drwxrwsr-x  7 nigel     hadoop  63 Apr  9  2009 r0.20.0
drwxrwsr-x  7 omalley   hadoop  64 Mar  1  2010 r0.20.1
drwxrwxr-x  7 cdouglas  hadoop  63 Aug 24  2010 r0.20.2
drwxrwxr-x  7 omalley   hadoop  63 May 11 20:11 r0.20.203.0
drwxrwxr-x  7 tomwhite  hadoop  31 Aug 17  2010 r0.21.0

Other than the history of who made each of the releases, there isn't a lot of value there. I propose that we trim this down to:

r0.20.2
r0.20.203.0
r0.21.0

Any concerns? If not, I'll clean up next week.

There are some non trivial 0.19 clusters running  too.

What is our definition of stable release? Stable normally means no new
features, just enhancements and bug fixes. And API stability.

Thanks,
Eli

I think we need a 0.18 doc's as some people are still running this.
other than that (and what is 'current'.. it should point to the stable release imho) I'm good with it.

	^--- this is a much more interesting discussion.

 	(What does "current" mean now?)
