I agree that the order of "What's new in the dristo" and "What's new in
the installer" should be reversed.

I have looked over your patch and would suggest instead the text below.
The main change is that I've changed the footnote to normal text as
I think a warning about removed packages is important enough for that.
I've also made some changes in syntax and words used.
Please let me know if this modified text is OK with you and I will
commit both changes.
Cheers,
FJP

<p>This new release of Debian again comes with a lot more software
than its predecessor &oldreleasename;; the distribution includes
over 9000 new packages. Most of the software in the distribution
has been updated: almost 6500 software packages (that is 73% of
the &oldreleasename; distribution).
Besides, a significant number of packages has for various reasons
been removed from the distribution. You will not see any updates
for these packages and they will be marked as 'obsolete' in package
management front-ends.</p>
