For us, it simply doesn't make sense. We don't want people accidentially installing old versions, or running versions for which security updates are no longer available. We would be ill-advised to contribute to that, in my opinion.
But if others feel different and disagree, that's fine.
Well, your "ftp.suse.de" server contains the updates for SuSE-5.2... If that old distro is still there, I don't see why more recent versions can't. Traditionally, you had a "discontinued" directory tree where ALL the old, discontinued distros where kept. There is no need for mirrors to mirror that stuff. And no one would install them confusing them with a still maintained distro, the "discontinued" directory name is self-explaining. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
