I kinda like having it in the title, actually, because that way the
table-of-contents will show the release date history all on one page.
I frequently find myself trying to guess which release cycle a given
past date was in --- and AFAIK we have no handy reference anywhere.
The top of
http://www.postgresql.org/devel-corner/docs/postgres/release.htm 
will become such a reference with Bruce's change.
