Enter your suggestions in details:

The new previous releases page no longer shows the NODE_MODULE_VERSION or v8 version for each release. Those were super useful for native module maintainers, and I don't see anywhere else that that info is listed nicely across releases. Can those columns be restored please?

These columns are likely not going to be added due to the Website Redesign. Please refer to #5131;

Also IMO, the Website is mostly tailored for end-users, I doubt that's the right place where we should mention N-API versions and such. The data containing the N-API versions is provided within https://nodejs.org/dist/index.json

For what it's worth as an end-user, I came to the releases page looking for a NODE_MODULE_VERSION list because I'm debugging an error of the type:

The module '<path>' was compiled against a different Node.js version using
NODE_MODULE_VERSION 127. This version of Node.js requires
NODE_MODULE_VERSION 115. 

and I need to know what versions of node they correspond to.

All the search results I can find for NODE_MODULE_VERSION point to the releases page as the place to get this info, so it was a bit surprising to find it had been removed.

I suppose we could add that information back to the table.
