 The OpenAPI Initiative encourages participation from individuals and companies alike. If you want to participate in the evolution of the OpenAPI Specification, consider taking the following actions:
 
-* Review the [current specification](https://spec.openapis.org) on the official specification site, which is the source of truth as it includes the full credits and citations.
+* Review the specification [markdown sources](versions) and [authoritative _source-of-truth_ HTML renderings](https://spec.openapis.org/), including full credits and citations.
 * Review the [contributing](CONTRIBUTING.md) process so you understand how the spec is evolving.
 * Check the [discussions](https://github.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/discussions), [issues](https://github.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/issues) and [pull requests](https://github.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/pulls) to see if someone has already documented your idea or feedback on the specification. You can follow an existing conversation by subscribing to the existing issue or PR.
