Well, *I* do, but maybe it's just me. When we do weekly releases at work 
I do the same for historical tracking. Otherwise it's really hard to 
query a bug-tracking tool (I'm talking at you, bugzilla) to get a list 
of the bugs that were fixed/features added for a given release. If a bug 
that was fixed in a previous release pops up again in a later one, I can 
go back in the release notes and see when it was fixed, and that narrows 
the window for finding the code changes. But if I'm the only one who 
cares about this stuff then I'm ok with dropping the sections from the 
release notes.
