The online documentation style guide section on explaining version differences needs updating to current practice, based on input from arianek during the Drupalcon Chicago 2011 Docs Sprint.

The existing section on 'Explaining Version Differences' documents describing version differences from oldest version to newest version, rather than our current practice of describing the newest version first, then accounting for differences in reverse order of version releases.

This section should be re-written to describe the current practice for version ordering, and it would probably make sense to discuss options and provide suggestions as to how handling version differences can be integrated into the overall structure of a given page.

I switched the order to list the more recent version first.
