Since our automation tracks the tag (https://github.com/postgres/postgres/releases/tag/REL_15_0), which was created a few days ago, the release date is early by a few days: https://github.com/endoflife-date/endoflife.date/pull/1704/files#diff-9bae514630c114a9c29dfc0d0f8b25954cf57548d241b7640c92e97795ff6181

Relevant thread on pg mailing list: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/flat/20221013111913.oc3omlookxuuxn7g%40alvherre.pgsql#ea7a63e2142f8b1f80982088bf33dc32. The suggestion is:

As far as Postgres is concerned, you could automate things so that a tag detected on a Tuesday is marked as released on the immediately following Thursday (noon EDT/EST). If you did this, you'd get it right 99% of the time, and the only way to achieve 100% would be to have a bot that follows the quarterly announcements in pgsql-announce.
