May I suggest a small tweak - 'conveniency' isn't an English word
as far as I know
Instead of
+ <para>
+ For conveniency, version 2.0.5 of <systemitem
Try
+ <para>
+ Conveniently, version 2.0.5 of <systemitem
Or even just
+ <para>
+ Version 2.0.5 of <systemitem
Thanks for all your work on the release notes!
