Why is this information not just displayed on "Unsupported Historical
Releases" (/releases)? Do you have plans for the EOL page that
wouldn't be suitable for the other one?  My worry is spreading this
information across multiple places, when we already have a very
detailed page about unsupported versions.  The X.Y version table could
be listed at the top of /releases to give a quick summary, before the
detail for each individual version listed chronologically.  We could
add more notes like the existing "Support for PHP 4 has been
discontinued since 2007-12-31." at the appropriate places in that
list.
