Lonami Exo 19a27d602c Delete dated documentation section
While it might have persuaded some people to avoid ending here,
there's also the possibility this had no effect, or even made
the situation worse. For that, I apologize for any hurt feelings.

What is this?
-------------
Telegram is a popular messaging application. This library is meant
to make it easy for you to write Python programs that can interact
with Telegram. Think of it as a wrapper that has already done the
heavy job for you, so you can focus on developing an application.
How should I use the documentation?
-----------------------------------
If you are getting started with the library, you should follow the
documentation in order by pressing the "Next" button at the bottom-right
of every page.
You can also use the menu on the left to quickly skip over sections.
