I don't understand the difference. If you are saying rename ReleaseNote36 to Release36, then thats fine! But as far as replacing the concept of ReleaseNote36 with some other concept, this is impossible. at some point we are going to send an email with some contents, and if thats gonna be me, I'm not going to type it up myself but have it as a wiki page i copy-paste from... so I don't think it should have other functionality/stuff on it...
