[issue29719] "Date" of what's new is confusing

[Ned Deily]

Ned Deily added the comment:

It's a bit confusing but:

1. https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/3.6.html

is the URL for the current 3.6 branch, in other words, what will be in the next 3.6 release.  These are rebuilt as changes are checked in.

2. https://docs.python.org/release/3.6.0/whatsnew/3.6.html

(which is linked from https://www.python.org/doc/versions/) is the URL for the docs corresponding to the 3.6.0 release.  These are built at release time and then never change.

Does that help?
