I wonder whether we can this a bit more active. 

Maybe something like "This includes support for the ... dialects, a 
complete set of ...and ..."?

Maybe put this in parenthesis since it's not an update as such and more 
relatives to the previous item?

What are we saying here? I.e., what is the change we are announcing? As a 
user, what might I notice? Why do I care?


The above are questions to possibly improve this for our users. Please 
adjust as you see fit, or push as is, if you prefer.


On a somewhat related note: This is definitely big enough to warrant an 
entry in the News section on our main page. :-)  Do you want to propose
something?
