The following would be using docs.python.org as a namespace (and is what I think we should move towards):

docs.python.org/latest docs.python.org/dev docs.python.org/3.2 docs.python.org/3.1 docs.python.org/2.7 docs.python.org/2.6 Love it. +1

Apart from the "latest" one, all these URLs already work.

Of course, /2.7 is redirected to /, and /3.3 to /dev, etc. If required, the direction of these redirects can be changed, so that e.g. / goes to /2.7.

What about:

docs.python.org/2/ docs.python.org/3/

for latest versions of 2.x and 3.x

docs.python.org/2.7/ etc.

for latest minor versions

docs.python.org/dev/

for latest dev version.

docs.python.org/ --> either /2/ or /3/ or a "disambiguation page" docs.python.org/py3k/ -> /3/

There is also /release/X.Y.Z for individual released versions, which I don't want to change.

I also like Martin's idea of offering more links between individual pages, not only the front-pages.
