Satoshi first linked to the bitcoin.pdf paper on Sat, 01 Nov 2008 and, therefore, the first version should have been created before that time.

CreationDate: 03/24/09 11:33:15 -06:00
So, I am wondering... How many versions of the paper existed before the current one? What was changed? Does anyone have any of these versions? Where is the original bitcoin.pdf document?
