[QGIS-Developer] [Qgis-psc] QGIS webserver size vs publishing old docs

[Andreas Neumann]

Hi all,

I agree with Johannes - that old docs - at least of LTR versions should
ideally be kept around for more years.

I wonder what is the content of "QGIS-tests" (the largest share storage
wise)? Is this the "latest" documentation version in the works - or is it
the test results of the performance tests? Does it contain old stuff that
could be cleaned?
