Given these concerns the following templates in the documentation need to be
updated:
http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/learning/satb-on-four-staves

The template uses the ill advised << ... >> grouping

This is just one of the templates, presumably _all_ the vocal ensenble
templates are using  << ... >>

How many different versions of the documentation do you keep?
I'm mostly encountering v2.16 and v2.17, but sometimes a google search gives
me a result in v2.14

(For google searches in the lilypond documentation I generally add the
following specifiation in the Google search bar:  
site:lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/)
