     <title>Software Has Grown Up</title>
     <media type="image" src="figures/placeholder.png"/>
     <p>GNOME's new Software installer application was first introduced six months ago, inversion 3.10. Since 
then it has grown up in a serious way. Performance has been improved across the board, so that common 
operations like browsing and searching for applications or installing and removing software are fast and 
responsive.</p>
-    <p>The new version includes a long list of new new features, including screenshots of applications, the 
ability to install software packages that have been downloaded, options to manually check for software 
updates, and controls for organizing your applications into folders.</p>
+    <p>The new version includes a long list of new new features. Software now includes much richer 
information about applications, including screenshots of most applications (with new screenshots being added 
every day), and an automatic system which gives personalized star ratings for each application. Additional 
controls provide much more flexibility; you can now use Software to install individual software packages that 
have been downloaded, and you can specify which software repositories you want to use, and disable 
repositories that you have previously added.</p>
+    <p>The software updates experience has received a number of enhancements to make it more convenient to 
use. It is now possible to manually check for updates and see when the last automatic update check was 
performed. You can also opt to have your computer power off after updates have been installed, and you can 
install updates from the system power off button.</p>
