+1

We should version cross-doc links, just like internal doc links implicitly are versioned.
I just would like to emphasize that we are currently talking about links in comments which do not show up in the generated documentation for the user.

How that gets done is the key question here.

I don't mind adding more of the cross-doc links IF there is a plan in place to sweep all of them at once to fix the versioning. Without a plan to fix the links so they will work right when a release is cut, then I agree with Chris, because it is putting technical debt on him and the release process.

To which text should I change:

_AUTOMATICALLY_GENERATED_WARNING = [
    "This file is part of the RTEMS quality process and was automatically",
    "generated.  If you find something that needs to be fixed or",
    "worded better please post a report or patch to an RTEMS mailing list",
    "or raise a bug report:",
    "",
"https://docs.rtems.org/branches/master/user/support/bugs.html";,
    "",
    "For information on updating and regenerating please refer to:",
    "",
    "https://docs.rtems.org/branches/master/eng/req/howto.html";,
