I normally update the wikidata and link to announcement message promptly:

	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cygwin

In the infobox for Stable release is a link to the announcement mailing 
list post:

https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin-announce/2022-May/010565.html

which should be considered more definitive than info on a web page:: 
seems like a weak excuse.

I don't know if the web site htdocs release can be made dynamic or 
auto-updated during release?
