So far I've moved all the 6.x versions to /pub/odbc/versions/old and left
the 7.x versions in /pub/odbc/versions (these are the zip files of the
binaries I've been compiling over the last few weeks).

I don't intend to delete any of the old stuff, just move it into an old
directory.

Yup. I would probably add it as a link to an index page though unless Joel
can let me know whenever he updates it.

I quite agree. I'll perhaps create the documentation in the format of the
website and then request that it's added to the site properly.

BTW: Has anyone noticed the psqlodbcplus project on www.greatbridge.org?
