Looks like you can contribute here:

although I've never done so.

I've Cc'ed the release notes team: relnotes(a)fedoraproject.org on this bug and
marked the fedora_requires_release_note flag as per instructions above. If you
could e-mail them directly about the issues as per that Howto that would also be
great.

The comment on the change is:
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins is owned by nspluginwrapper.i386, so it simplifies instructions to remove manual creation.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Users of Fedora x86_64 must install the `nspluginwrapper.i386` package to enable the 32-bit Adobe Flash plugin in x86_64 '''Firefox''' and the `pulseaudio-libs.i386` package to enable sound from the plugin.
- * Create the 32bit mozilla plugin directory:
- {{{su -c "mkdir -p /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins"
- }}}
* Install the `nspluginwrapper.i386`, `nspluginwrapper.x86_64`, and `pulseaudio-libs.i386` packages:
{{{su -c "yum install nspluginwrapper.{i386,x86_64} pulseaudio-libs.i386"
}}}
- * Install `flash-plugin` as shown above.
+ * Install `flash-plugin` as shown above after nspluginwrapper.i386 is installed.
* Run {{{mozilla-plugin-config}}} to register the flash plugin:
{{{su -c "mozilla-plugin-config -i -g -v"

[Fedora Project Wiki] Update of "Docs/Beats/Virtualization" by MurrayMcAllister

minor edit (thanks paul ;) )
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Xen kernel is now based on the paravirt ops implementation from the upstream kernel. Previously, the Xen kernel was created by forward-porting Xen bits from the 2.6.18 kernel into the current Fedora kernel. This task was arduous and labor intensive, and resulted in the Xen kernel being several releases behind the bare-metal kernel. The inclusion of paravirt ops now makes this process unnecessary. Once paravirt ops is merged upstream, Xen will no longer require a separate kernel.
- However, the Xen kernel now lacks Dom0 support, so one's Xen host/Dom0 must continue to run Fedora 8. Xen Dom0 support will be added back in Fedora 10.
