Unfortunately, we live within the limitations of the sourceforge file release system, so this is not an option.One of the beauties of free software is that people have low barriers to accessing old versions for whatever reason they need them. Unless there are disk space problems, I suggest that they be put in a directory named "obsolete" or "deprecated", and that robots.txt be set up so to avoid search engines to give the direct link to download them directly.
