This looks great except for 'latest', which is ambiguous and awkward.

Like Guido, I would have docs2 and docs3 link to the latest of each series. This gives both series equal billing. docs itself could then become a neutral index page. In retrospect, I wish we had done this a year ago.

This design would continue to work if and when we need docs4.python.org.
