I wouldn't know for sure, but at
http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/pseries/library/sp_books/pe.html
there is a list of documents for PE versions 2.3, 2.4, 3.1, and 3.2.
The 2.3 docs are dated 1996 and 1997, so maybe it is time to move to
the new scheme. The changes are really quite minor. It is just small
changes to the spec file. It could probably even go in 3.1.1. I just
don't know where the spec files are generated.
