[OpenLayers-Dev] website

[Tim Schaub]

Thanks for the heads up, Peter.

When we did the major shuffle moving deprecated methods into the
deprecated.js script, we lost our API doc menu structure.  I've just
pushed a commit that should fix this (next time the docs build).

https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/commit/0e6d971ad0300454f3389aed9e70d1342ece3b54

In terms of API versus dev docs, the API docs describe things we
promise will only change with a new major version.  The developer docs
include things that you should not be relying on for stability.  I
think we'd be better off if we stopped linking to these.
