The only way in which I find this acceptable is:
Bundling these previous versions with ebooks that teach
how to program in this platform. These ebooks could be
written for different interests and profesions.

For example, people who works mostly with texts would
be interested in the amazing string capabilities of this
platform, including regex.

Designers, like me, would like to learn about graphics
and bitmaps programming in this platform and their
relation with other graphics formats.

Interface designers have their own particular learning
interests too.

Engineers andd Math professionals would prefer to
work with examples from their own field.

School students would be guided in such way that
learning programming seems as easy as any other
of their classes. This is really possible if it's done well.

Etc, etc, etc.

This is not a small feat, I know. Creating an outstanding
and consistent series of eLearning books for many different
kind of public seems out of reach even for the biggest names
in software, but...
Have they even tried to do it? Probably not, but it's possible
using the best minds of this platform and a good Editor that
provide homogeneity and consistency to the whole ebook series.
Just one editor. A very good one.
