  Replica versions data products, not an API - there is no public developer API to version, deprecate
  or sunset. Versioning is expressed as seasons (Places), weekly refreshes (Trends) and annual
  vintages (traffic/speeds). Deprecation is expressed as dated "[Discontinued]" notices on the
  affected dataset documentation pages. Replica publishes no status page, no SLA, and no formal
  deprecation or versioning policy document.

    prefix but is session-authenticated and undocumented.
