Since we're well past halfway through the 2.6 lifetime perhaps we should just 
delete that section entirely.

We have a Japanese translation frozen at somewhere mid-2.4 and now an Italian 
translation frozen at 2.6.1. We should avoid having anything that "dates" the 
text like a "what's new in..." section. It will look pretty dumb in early 2018 
when we release 2.8.0 to have "what's new in 2.6" in the Italian translation. I 
hope that there's nothing like that in the Japanese translation.

John Ralls
