No support for dataset versions?

I don't see how to navigate between different versions of a dataset: https://new.openml.org/search?type=data&sort=runs&id=40509

Will try to finish this before next week's hackathon.

I still don't see a way to access the versions of a dataset. Is that in the works? Do you want a PR? This seems quite critical. I guess I can use the openml-python API, but if someone is using the scikit-learn api then figuring out which version of a dataset they want is basically impossible.

I thought I'd be further along with the refactoring to next.js (https://github.com/openml/openml.org/tree/master/app) - but it might take another few weeks or even a month.

I'll see if I can update the current website sometime this week. I'll keep you posted. Would you have time for a PR? The thing is that there is a lot of custom code to link to the search engine, so it may not be trivial and we'll likely remove that code later this year.

A quick solution would be to have a link 'other versions' that starts a new search showing all the versions of that dataset, something like this but only showing exact matches to the dataset name: https://new.openml.org/search?type=data&status=any Is that also acceptable until I have finished and released the refactored website?

I was thinking of "just" bringing back the drop-down for the versions on the dataset page. That should be one call into the search, to get the relevant URLs, right? Showing all the versions with the exact name match would also be fine, I guess? At least if the status of the version is clear from the search results.

I will bring the dropdown back, but I'd rather do that in the refactored website. Yes, the status of each version will be very easy to see in the version overview.

Added a version history button on the live website. Will implement the dropdown in the new major release.
