Where is documentation of old versions?

Hi!

Where is old documentation? New UI restrict only to 6.x versions. Even direct url's don't work. For example:

https://docs.alfresco.com/5.2/concepts/upgrade-path.html

A lot's of community work on this forum goes down the drain.

HELP!!!

I also found old API references from here: http://dev.alfresco.com/resource/AlfrescoOne/5.2/PublicAPI/index.html

The archive version sometimes doesn't work. What can be the problem in this case? I sometimes receive the 401 error and don't know why. Maybe the problem is in VPN I'm usually using? I had almost the same problem on my own project with online documentation search engines and URLs. Some of them simply didn't work for no reason, so I decided to use another software for it. I've found at https://clickhelp.com/online-software-documentation-tool/ some interesting and helpful tools that helped me to fix these problems. I haven't noticed anything suspicious yet, so I hope this stuff with wrong urls won't be a problem anymore.

What problem you specifically saw ? @arthyols

Archived docs does seem to work, e.g.: https://github.com/Alfresco/docs-alfresco/blob/master/_archive/content-services/5.2/concepts/alfresco-components.md
