This list should be okay.

That could probably be made.

Or, starting at:
        https://www.wireshark.org/news/ <https://www.wireshark.org/news/>
then the release specific link:
        https://www.wireshark.org/docs/relnotes/wireshark-2.6.6.html 
<https://www.wireshark.org/docs/relnotes/wireshark-2.6.6.html>

So there seems to be a clear separation between the raw files and the documentation.
Let's see what other reactions are going to be.

Thanks,
Jaap
