I don't know if anyone has done this yet, but I'll try to tell you what those dates are:
26.05.1512 - Bayezid II, Ottoman Sultan, died (by the hands of...); 24.06.1459 - Probably Ezio's birthdate; 06.11.1494 - Suleiman the Magnificent was born (he's in the game);
11.01.1165 - Altair was born in this year so, his birthdate?; 10.09.1509 - Istanbul earthquake (we won't play during this year so this is most likely the setting for rebuilding Istanbul);
15.06.1511 - I guess this is when the game will start, as it starts in 1511, or maybe when Ezio arrives at Istanbul.
Do the spaces between some dates/groups of dates mean something?
Also, on the loading screen, there is "eauditore... failed to reinitialize" (wonder what this means, maybe how Desmond accesses the Black Room), "Animus 2.03" (maybe a new Animus of the other Assassins?) and "islandtest" (an island in the game?). On another screen, the MemArchives (Memory Archives) go from 1 to 12 (12 sequences?).
Another thing: on that Byzantine coat of arms, the right foot (Ezio's side) of the eagle is holding what looks like the Apple of Eden (Ezio had/has the Apple), and the left foot (Altaïr) is holding what looks like a sword (Sword of Eden anyone? Is that the treasure inside Masyaf? Did Altaïr get it?).
That's all I can think of now. I hope it helped!
