-    Based on testing and your feedback, we've learned and heard that there have
-    been some issues with the message tray. Accessing the tray was fiddly, and
-    the hot corner caused a lot of accidental triggers.
+    The Message Tray has received some major updates for GNOME 3.6. Many of these 
+    changes were based on feedback and testing, which indicated some interaction

     The new tray is clearer, better looking, and easier to interact with. It
-    keeps the same schema in place, but it refines the execution so that it is
-    less error-prone and more satisfying to use.

-    Instead of overlapping the viewing area, the new tray slides the view up,
-    suggesting that it is in the background, beneath the normal plane of
-    interaction. The items in the tray are also bigger, clearer, and don't move
-    around, making them easier to interact with.

+    The way that the tray is triggered has also been altered. The hot corner â
     which many people had problems with â has been replaced. Instead, the whole
     of the bottom screen edge now acts as a trigger area; letting the mouse rest
     there for a short period will cause the tray to appear. We plan to improve
-    this behaviour in subsequent releases, so that a certain amount of pressure
-    against the screen edge is required to open the tray (we need to wait for
-    changes down the stack before we can achieve this).
