the lines suggested by Tim.

Rohit, I believe his first suggestion regards the second paragraph in the draft
for his example. It reads: "Apache CloudStack is an integrated
Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) software platform that allows users to build
feature-rich public and private cloud environments. CloudStack includes an
intuitive user interface and rich API for managing the compute, networking,
software, and storage resources. The project became an Apache top level project
in March 2013."
I believe Tim suggests that '... software platform that allows users .." should
instead read ".... software platform allowing users ...".
Now, I'm not a native english speaker so I can't really explain why that this,
but this is how I understood his comment/suggestion.

Hi Tim,
Thanks for reviewing; I've few comments:
- I don't understand what your first suggestion.- I'll add that it's a
maintenance release on the LTS branch/release.- This is only an announcement,
the information on what got changes, added/removed/fixed need to go into
release notes. We can have a link to release notes and upgrade notes in the
announcements though.
Regards.

Subject: Re: [DISCUSS][REVIEW] CloudStack 4.9.1.0 announcement Great start,
Rohit. Only a few suggestions....
- current dayjob wants "active voice" for things like this. Net impact is stuff
like "that allows" now reads off to me. Suggest "allowing" for this example and
looking out for other cases.
- since this is a maintenance release, it would be good to explicit about that
(4.9.1.0 maintenance release)
- since this is a maintenance release on an lts, it's probably a good idea to
explicitly state when eom is slated to happen. Idea being to save someone from
hunting for it.
- "improvements" is both vague and subjective. Suggest creating a page
detailing any configuration or behavioral changes which occur from stock 4.9
and link to it. The idea isn't to replace the readme, but to consolidate stuff
you might need when debugging an upgrade
