Do you see any potential downsides? I don't really have a good answer, googlebot et.al acts in mysterious ways. It shouldn't affect searching for up to date information since we identify /current as the canonical version of pages in backbranches (supported or not). But if an 8.4 page is indexed and linked to from a gazillion stack overflow posts, then who knows how that shifts the results. Given how it works right now, and what we know, I would err on the side of caution and keep them indexed - but that's a highly unscientifically based opinion. -- Daniel Gustafsson https://vmware.com/
