Of course except this last hunk as that is for an older version, I'm
rushing too much, I'll rather send a v2 tomorrow then regret the bunny
ears yet again.


I don't feel like news entries become entirely immutable
after the release is out; in particular, performing minor
style tweaks like this one or fixing typos is perfectly
acceptable IMHO, as it improves the overall document without
changing its meaning or attempting to rewrite history.



Sure, I just meant it's not part of this patch.  I pushed both of them
now, hopefully it looks like it should, feel free to check it out ;)


And I'm pretty sure removing an extra space from this file
will not cause the build to fail, so no risk of bunny ears ;)

I don't feel that adding that file improved anything, but yes, that is
the more appropriate place.
