Links to old versions

Problem

I understand that old versions of elementaryOS are no longer supported, but there should be an archive page where we can download old versions of elementary. Some reasons:

• from a historical point of view, it would be nice to be able to look at the evolution of elementaryOS from the very first versions until this day
• trying to support users that have older versions... for example, I'm trying to reproduce an issue that some users are encountering on the previous major version of elementary (I guess they haven't updated to 6.0 yet).
• being able to rollback in case of problems with the current latest release

The problem is that I'm unable to find any working links to old versions. No other 3rd party website is archiving elementary builds (distrowatch links are dead, osarchive.sda1.eu also dead, Internet Archive doesn't archive elementary, neither does ibiblio.org). On the official website I can only download the latest release.

Proposal

Having an archive page where we can download old versions of elementaryOS.

Prior Art

All major distros have archive pages. Ubuntu has one that goes all the way to version 4.0, Debian, Fedora and many others. You get the point.

osarchive.sda1.eu seems to be working for me, but Internet Archive is the best place. I may work on uploading there.
