There is a big difference between "not supporting" and "preventing people to download open source software".
I understand your point of view, but we never prohibit any user from keeping a copy of an old version of the system.
As I said, it's the developers' decision not to distribute the obsolete versions anymore, I hope you understand, even if you didn't like it.
Please do not encourage downloading of old versions, much less distribute links to sites with copyrighted content, this is subject to banishment.
