As mentioned in the release announcement: "Many people have received their 4.6 CDs in the mail by now, and we really don't want them to be without the full package repository. We are pleased to announce the official release of OpenBSD 4.6. This is our 26th release on CD-ROM (and 27th via FTP). We remain proud of OpenBSD's record of more than ten years with only two remote holes in the default install."

You shouldn't strikethrough a number of rows of text if that part of the text has absolutely nothing to do with the news (ie. you did not make false claims or something like that). Just wipe it.
Personally, I'd rather see that the situation was changed. Originally, it was destined to be a page II story, until a thoughtful reader, joku, provided more details; thus the story could be listed on Page I.
I prefer this method of notification, vs. history getting edited and thrown away. From now on, when you see underlined text, pretend it's not there.

Agreed.
Unfortunately everyone has their own opinion on how something should be done and sometimes there is no "correct" method, only preferred approaches.
In this instance though, I completely agree with yourself (and Thom)

I am really not keen on the way the editing of articles is done around here. You shouldn't strikethrough a number of rows of text if that part of the text has absolutely nothing to do with the news (ie. you did not make false claims or something like that). Just wipe it. We don't care.
It's awful when more than a half of the so called preview is only something that should not exist at all.
