Hmm, a better starting point would be date the last branch was cut 
(which reminds me, the release process doesn't stamp the changelog when 
that is done ...).  Otherwize a diff of the changelogs between two 
releases won't make much sense -> it will contain a lot of noise.

The other more pragmatic aproach is to start it today, in 4 months, the 
problem will go away anyway.
