Arguably we can remove the JavaScript and make it just a really long
page that has everything listed out (similar to the way it was in the docs).

Outside of the cleaner look, I'm can't remember why we set up the
interface in this way (and I'm pretty sure the person who did it is
typing this email). I'm not necessarily opposed to just listing
everything out, though the page does get rather long if you're looking
for a really old release announcement (which is likely not too many people).

It shouldn't be overly hard to statically render everything initially, and then have the JS collapse everything.
