Most people looking for the PAL or ASE aren't looking for "history", they're 
looking for some tool or library. And for that, the most recent version is 
the best. (Working software continues to work regardless of how old it is!)

Yes, of course, if you're looking for history per-se, there are other places 
to look for this information -- but that mainly seems to be of interest for 
dead languages and Ada is anything but dead. (Stale versions of things do 
nothing for making Ada appear alive, which I thought was your concern here.)
