Comment (by laurlittle):

 > which means the strings of the upcoming release are frozen and must not
 be changed anymore — including the About page.

 Thanks for clarifying this @swissspidy. I must've misunderstood somewhere
 regarding About page copy changes.

 Between the three changes, there's only one that's an actual factual
 correction and that's the change related to the performance updates.

 This comment] on the highlight grid tracking issue can provide more
 context.

 The other two edits are not factual errors, just messaging clarifications
 that would be helpful. That being said, they'll be addressed in the /News
 announcement and the microsite, so the only concern would be lack of
 consistency (and possibly minor confusion for some readers).

 I'm not sure what the readership of the About page vs. /News is, so the
 factual error feels like an important thing to fix. The others probably
 not (unless they can be changed post-release at some point).
