Personally, I'd prefer:
mv NEWS ONEWS
cat $WWWDOCS/htdocs/gcc-$MAJOR.$MINOR/features.html | lynx -dump > NNEWS>
cat NNEWS ONEWS > NEWS
rm NNEWS ONEWS
It would then be possible to manually edit out some really ancient stuff, but I think it worth keeping the last few versions worth; particularly when releasing minor version updates.
