Having an archive seems sufficient - those who need old versions for use or research can get them; they don't have to be clogging up the build server. Sounds great.
Indeed. If people would like to use older releases, they should look for another place, not for build server. Since build server are there to build & test bleeding-edge (under development) versions, but not ones which already released and years old.
Ok, so you simply do not want the builds to be used by others.
Its not about that we don't want users to download older versions (they are available for download at pharo official site).
No. Builds purpose is to follow a development process: new update -> new build. Now since we're done with 1.2 (and even almost done with 1.3) there will be no new versions for these lines, since all development is now in 1.4. So, there is no reason to keep jobs for 1.2 and then 1.3 on build server, because there will be no activity around it.
What I understood is that there could be activity and changes not in pharo, but in the other project that is build/tested in Pharo. Say I am still quite developing Fuel, and I am commiting every day. No matter if it is on Pharo 1.2 or 1.3 what I want to say is that there is activity. Ok, the resources let us to that with the latest Pharo, so that we can test both at the same time: pharo itself and the third party. If you want third part with old pharo images, then you should get your own IC server.
That's fine.
