Corrected Fedora 19 release notes.

Description of problem:

I worked on the draft of the release notes, pointed out via markups, errors in
grammer, missing words and miss spellings. It was decided to not correct some
of the errors and publish. I have prepared a document which highlights the
errors, and most of all, corrects an omission in an Appendix A3.

My original release notes submission was done at end-April.

Hereto this bug is an update to the release notes. 
I would use the collaboration features of libreoffice, but not everyone knows
how to use it. Therefore I have resorted to coloring text yellow to show
removals, red to show insertions and to also insert words that were omitted. I
also asked some questions as to what the author was trying to say. 

We all, myself included are guilty of omitting words when we write our first
draft. Because we think while we write, a good proof read of the document is
needed.

So I am reporting 25+ corrections to the release notes shown on the website.

The document with the corrections is attached.  

I am also very disappointed that the proofreading effort was not recognized. In
that regard, I included an additional Appendix A3.
