Documentation Evolution
The user documentation provided here is drawn from a variety of Sakai versions starting before Sakai 1.0. In general, the documentation is intended to represent the latest version of Sakai, or the one due out soon (Sakai 2.0 at this time). Older documentation, while obsolete, will be retained for those developers who need to continue working with or maintaining older versions of Sakai. These pages are moved to the appropriate page under Sakai Releases.
