Description

Describe the bug

I ran into a 404 broken link on the Draft-07 page.
At the bottom of the page under the Release Notes section, there is a note that says:

"The -00 versions may be found in the obsolete directory."

When clicking on the "obsolete" link, it navigates to https://json-schema.org/obsolete which returns a 404 Not Found error.

Steps To Reproduce
  1. Go to https://json-schema.org/draft-07
  2. Scroll to the bottom under the "Release Notes" section.
  3. Click on the "obsolete" link in the note.
  4. It redirects to https://json-schema.org/obsolete and throws a 404.
Expected Behavior

The link shouldn't 404. Since the -00 files are already linked right above in the "Obsolete Draft 7 Documents" section (or located under /draft-07/), this link could either point to that section, link to the actual files, or be removed.

Research direction

Start at the JSON Schema Draft-07 page and inspect the Release Notes section, especially the obsolete link. Update or remove the broken destination so it points to the existing -00 files or relevant Draft-07 content, then verify that the link no longer returns a 404.
