Thanks for the alert.  There already is a release notes page for build 
650, http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Release_notes/7.1.0, which pointed the 
general public back to this page.

I moved all its info into the "For the general public" section of 
Release_notes/7.1.0, made it a redirect to that section, and fixed all 
English links to it so they either point to the 7.1.0 release notes page 
or to something more general.

==> Does anyone know if any pages on the XO, e.g. the "OLPC Library" 
home page, have ever linked to 
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/General_Release_Notes ?

There's a mismatch between the XO and the wiki: it's easy to determine 
that your XO is running, e.g. build 650 or build 708 (the canonical 
instructions are in 
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/How_to_check_the_OS_and_firmware_versions). 
But you don't know that this is the 7.1.0 ("ship.2") release or the 
8.1.1 release unless you do some research.  I filed Trac ticket 8260.
