All the "Moodle docs" links at the footer of pages in 1.9, 2.0 and 2.1 should be going to the correct docs (if not the exact version, then the latest available version for that language). Try different langauges too.

Moodle contains a config setting "docroot" which defaults to "http://docs.moodle.org"

Leave the default as it is.

However, in lib/weblib.php update get_docs_url() so that instead of producing URLS like:

$CFG->docroot/en/blah

it now produces

$CFG->docroot/20/en/blah

Where "20" in the example is derived from the first three letters of $CFG->release with the period taken out.

eg '2.0.3+ (Build: 20110511)' ---> '20'

This needs to be fixed for 1.9, 2.0 and 2.1.
