Honestly speaking, I don't think we need to backtrace all the way to the
day when worldwar II ended. The questions we got are mostly about the
support status of resource types in Icehouse and Juno. What have been
added? Which are deprecating/deprecated? So, I tend to agree that saying
just 'supported since 2013.2' would suffice.

Documenting the support status is important for sure, but I'm concerning
that most users are just brave/confident enough to start with trying the
command line. They even don't know there are docs. They start with
simple templates and then experiment with each resource type they feel
interested in.
