We're not sure yet.  We're kinda making this up as we go.  With
the proposed time-based release schedule we might drop the idea
of Errata updates completely.  Or we might tag along with so@ and
do Errata for releases that seem "particularly good" so they last
longer, etc.  It's too soon to tell for sure where this is headed.

So for now we'd like the info to be release-specific.  Later we might
decide that's a mistake and centralize it more.
