The comment on the change is:
Add info about installing Adobe Flash

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  
  This release of Fedora includes version 2.0 of the popular '''Firefox''' web browser.  Refer to http://firefox.com/ for more information about Firefox.
  
+ ==== Enabling Flash ====
+ 
+ Fedora includes an experimental opensource flash implementation called gnash.  We encourage you to experiment with gnash before seeking out Adobe's proprietary Flash software.
+ 
+ To install 
+  * visit [http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash Adobe's download site]
+  * Choose option 3, Yum repository
+  * Follow onscreen prompts to install package
+  * Launch Applications -> Add / Remove Software
+  * Search for "flash-plugin"
+  * Check to install
+  * Close all Firefox windows and launch it again
+  * Visit about:plugins to ensure the plugin is seen
+ 
+ Users of Fedora x86_64 need to make use of nspluginwrapper.i386 to enable the 32bit Adobe Flash plugin in x86_64 Firefox.
+ 
+ /!\ This is somewhat untested and needs some verification.
+ 
+  * Make the 32bit mozilla plugin directory {{{sudo mkdir -p /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins}}}
+  * Install flash-plugin as listed above
+  * Install nspluginwrapper.i386 and nspluginwrapper.x86_64
+  * Use mozilla-plugin-config to register the flash plugin {{{sudo mozilla-plugin-config -i -3}}}
+  * Close all Firefox windows and launch it again
+  * Visit about:plugins to ensure the plugin is seen
+ 
  === Mail Clients ===
  
  The `mail-notification` package has been split.  The '''Evolution''' plugin is now in a separate package called `mail-notification-evolution-plugin`. When you update the `mail-notification` package, the plugin is added automatically.
