Dan raised some concerns, but it doesn't look like they're critical enough for him to NACK the series; moreover, it's all stuff that we can easily address later on, so I'd like to move forward with this before the freeze.

I'm "mostly" fine with the changes - would like resolution sooner than later since I have a couple of things to add to news, but I didn't want to cause you extra merge cycles ;-) The *one* thing I'm really having a hard time with is not ending sentences with a period for <description>'s. Especially when there's two or more sentences within a <description> where the first one ends with a period, but the second one doesn't Not ending the previous paragraph without a period was really difficult for my fingers. I wouldn't hold up a ACK though for having or not having a period. John
