Reality check:
 * [As far as I know] There's noone even working on the announcement, IMHO the 
Release Notes are less important than the Annoucement
 * Who are you expecting to fill the Release Notes? Users? Users don't have 
the knowledge to write this, so I guess Developers is what you were expecting. 
I am not sure how many Developers read this list, probably not many, and even 
if they do, they prefer to write code than to write wiki stuff, so you have to 
gently push them to do it.

Also, I've read what you added and

"
In any case we advise to backup your data and configuration files (usually in 
~/.kde) before an upgrade. 
"
Really? Why? As far as I know we don't have any destructive operation, yes, 
you should backup ~/.kde as you should backup your photos, but I am not sure 
~/.kde is more important than my photos.

"
Nepomuk will consume an unusual amount of compunting performance
"
Have you checked with the developers? This seems like a bug to me.

Doing Release Notes is *not* easy and it won't happen unless someone pushes 
for it to happen. That someone seems to be *you*, so if you want it to happen 
start sending mails to developers and prodding them to write Release Notes and 
verify that the ones you've already written make sense, because otherwise it's 
not going to magically happen.

Sorry if I've been blunt.

Cheers,
