Questions regarding docs, supporting older versions of iOS, and more
The session left me with a ton of questions, and I'm not able to find much information in the current documentation. Note: The session links to an internal page, rather than the live documentation currently (see: "Handling Universal Links") I will work on filing Feedbacks for many of these, but wanted to present them as questions here as well: Where is the documentation for the new substitution variables, defaults, case-sensitive and percent-encoded? The docs don't seem to be updated with these features. How do various versions of the AASA file interact, and how can we specify different versions for different target iOS versions? From the example in the video: They still need the 27mb AASA so long as they must support iOS 13.4 and lower - which for many companies could be 2-3 years! It's also unclear how the new features might interact with "old" features. If I have an app that supports iOS 12, and want to launch a new app that supports iOS 14+ under the same domain, can the new app use unicode and other new features, or will that break the file for older apps? How can we test the CDN, and how does cache-invalidation work? This should be documented in detail along with the current information regarding status codes and content-types. Examples of the request/response expected would be helpful as well. Is .well-known/apple-app-site-association the preferred path now in all cases? The docs seems to suggest this.

When can we browse tags and recent posts?
The new forums seem to be missing some pretty key features for browsing topics and finding answers. It would be very useful to be able to see the most recent posts, browse all of the tags, and bring back some of the previous features in search (time windows, etc). Is there any public roadmap for future updates, and can we expect things to develop rapidly, or will this be the state of these forums for the foreseeable future?
