 Yes.

 > It seems like longer term, the dist team should come up with a policy of
 what stays on dist, and what gets deleted (but still kept on archive) to
 keep dist unconfusing to people. Especially since we're pointing more
 people directly to dist now that our new website doesn't link to some of
 the things.

 Having a clear policy for this sounds like a good idea. The current policy
 for the Tor Browser directory is that we only keep the latest two stable
 and alpha releases (mainly because there is not enough space to keep
 more), but the policy seems to be different in the other directories.
