I noticed the other day that if you are viewing the release notes for a particular version that the prev / next links are wrong. E.g., If I am reading 8.1.8 and want to read 8.1.9 I have to hit previous, instead of next.
I think it's because the releases are listed newest first, so when you hit next you're not getting the next release, but the next release notes. While perhaps a bit confusing on the individual pages, I still think it's best to have the release notes in reverse chronological order.

Yeah.  It is confusing if you _think_ about it, but if you just use it,
it's fine (after all, we've been using it this way for years.  I mean
even Joshua used to use it and not notice it was backwards).

Well yes and no. I noted that it was confused as soon as I started to use previous and next. I normally don't do that.

Probably the only thing you could actually do about it is change the
text in the link so it said "previous release" (resp. "next release")
instead of "next" (resp. "previous"), but I have zero idea what it would
take.  It's probably a lot more work than it's worth, if it's possible
at all.
