There are different schools on the topic. I know Frank is not too keen on
mentionning versionning, although personnaly, I try to mention version
differences in the format page itself (http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_osm.html
mentions GDAL/OGR >= 1.10.0). But at the end, in drivers with a lot of activity,
it becomes cluttered with mentions like "in version X, in version Y". Having
different version of the documentation, for each version, on the server could
solve that, although it is sometimes usefull to identify quickly that a
particular feature has been introduced in a version.
