I'm "mostly" fine with the changes - would like resolution sooner than
later since I have a couple of things to add to news, but I didn't want
to cause you extra merge cycles ;-)

The *one* thing I'm really having a hard time with is not ending
sentences with a period for <description>'s.  Especially when there's
two or more sentences within a <description> where the first one ends
with a period, but the second one doesn't

Not ending the previous paragraph without a period was really difficult
for my fingers.  I wouldn't hold up a ACK though for having or not
having a period.
