Editorial pass

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  
  The `yum` command now retries when it detects a lock.  This function is useful if a daemon is checking for updates, or if you are running `yum` and one of its graphical frontends simultaneously. 
  
- The `yum` command now understands a cost parameter in its configuration file, which is the relative cost of accessing a software repository.  It is useful for weighing one software repository's packages as greater or less than any other. The cost parameter defaults to 1000.
+ The `yum` command now understands a cost parameter in its configuration file, which is the relative cost of accessing a software repository.  It is useful for weighing one software repository's packages as greater or less than any other. The cost parameter defaults to 1000, with lower costs given priority.
- 
- '''FIXME:''' explain whether a higher or lower value gives a particular configuration file priority. ''Reading http://devel.linux.duke.edu/gitweb/?p=yum.git;a=blob;f=yum/__init__.py I presume that lower cost gives priority. But then again it is 4am here so it would be nice if one of the yum people could give confirmation. (PatrickErnzer)''
  
  === pam_mount ===
- pam_mount now uses a config file written in xml. {{{/etc/security/pam_mount.conf}}} will be converted to {{{/etc/security/pam_mount.conf.xml}}} during update with {{{/usr/bin/convert_pam_mount_conf.pl}}}, this will remove all comments. If you use per user config files, they need to be converted manually (you can use the conversion script, off course). A sample pam_mount.conf.xml file with detailed comments about the available options can be found at {{{/usr/share/doc/pam_mount-*/pam_mount.conf.xml}}}.
+ The `pam_mount` facility now uses a configuration file written in XML.  The `/etc/security/pam_mount.conf` file will be converted to `/etc/security/pam_mount.conf.xml` during update with `/usr/bin/convert_pam_mount_conf.pl`, which removes all comments. Any per-user configuration files must be converted manually, with the conversion script if desired.  A sample `pam_mount.conf.xml` file with detailed comments about the available options appears at `/usr/share/doc/pam_mount-*/pam_mount.conf.xml`.
  
  === TeXLive ===
  [http://www.tug.org/texlive/ TeXLive] is a replacement for the old, unmaintained TeX package.  It offers new style packages and fixes many security problems with the old distribution.
