What, specifically, do you think makes DocBook unsuitable?  Yes, it's a
bit on the large side, but if someone's building a release they should
already have most of the tools necessary.  We're probably only going to 
end up using 15-20 DocBook elements in the release notes, but anyone editing
the release notes should be able to see from the rest of the file what 
markup to use.
