Keep it for a historical record? Or maybe that's just too confusing to users?

Mhh, then maybe into the grassXX/binary/macosx/ directory? To have
it close to the related version?

It was just a thought.
Most of it is more general, more a way of doing dependencies at the time (though some of those are out-of-date).
Nice thing about wikis - it keeps a record of old versions of documents (as changes), but they're not in your face to confuse you. Maybe if I dump it into the wiki page with the original date stamped on it, then update the page with the new stuff. It's what I've done with my own site build instructions when I converted them to my wiki.

I was pondering the wiki idea for saving an accessible copy of the old files, then realized that there are other older Mac files in there also, not referenced from the site any more. I wonder if I should just point the Mac link on the platform/index.html directly to the wiki, and leave the Mac files there, unlinked.
Or am I too preoccupied with retaining a historical record, and I should just delete the lot? SVN retains a history (duh!), just like the wiki, just not as easily accessible.
