Your text is perfectly fine, thanks.
By looking at other parts of the release notes, though, I've noticed
that the "installing" chapter needs a little bit of tweaking as
well. I'm attaching an additional patch that should address that
(assuming #607193 will be addressed before release notes get read by
final users).
I believe that after committing the extra patch, this bug can be closed.
TIA,
Cheers.
