This text:

        (previous versions of this handbook can be obtained from <ulink
        url="http://docs.FreeBSD.org/doc/"></ulink>).

from book.sgml makes me think that's where we could go for "older"
versions of the handbook.  The Handbook itself should cover
the latest releases.  If there is some ambiguity, then it should
be fixed.  ;)
