If by that you mean WHATS_NEW{,_DM} files, these were overwritten every 
time by latest 2.02 or 2.03 release.

I have fixed that now, and there are now both files for 2.02 and 2.03 
available on sourceware.org:

ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/lvm2/WHATS_NEW-2.02
ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/lvm2/WHATS_NEW_DM-2.02

ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/lvm2/WHATS_NEW-2.03
ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/lvm2/WHATS_NEW_DM-2.03

WHATS_NEW is now a link to the newest branch (2.03 ATM):

ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/lvm2/WHATS_NEW
ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/lvm2/WHATS_NEW_DM
