Do Puppies Expire?

I am a newbie and grabbed the latest version (Tahr), but I see older versions - much older ones - still available for download. Don't they expire after some time?

It's good but I'm kinda scared of the all-or-nothing way I'm supposed to update it (opening Synaptic, Refresh, Mark All Upgrades, Apply). I have TahrPup (6.0.2) and it's w...
