Thanks for the pointers here, Mario.

The solution I settled on was to start at the overview level and use the NEWS file, eg:
https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/ruby_2_3/NEWS

The GitHub URLs make it easy to get the file for the desired version (or just use the branch drop-down).

The text can then be copy/pasted into:
http://github-markup.dfilimonov.com/
for pretty viewing online.

In terms of what's new:

The &. syntax in v2.3.0 (Happy Christmas) looks interesting:

new method call syntax, `object&.foo', method #foo is called on `object' if it is not nil.

obj.try!(:foo, bar())  # bar() is always evaluated
obj&.foo(bar())        # bar() is conditionally evaluated

* attribute assignment is valid
obj&.attr += 1

Regards,
Tom
