 Feature Changes
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
-- The memory statistics were reduced to a single counter InUse (with Malloced as
-  alias).  Most of the counters were useful with the old BIND 9 internal memory
-  allocator that has been removed.  The InUse/Malloced counter is the only one
-  that bears any real value in production. :gl:`#3718`
+- The memory statistics have been reduced to a single counter,
+  ``InUse``; ``Malloced`` is an alias that holds the same value. The
+  other counters were usable with the old BIND 9 internal memory
+  allocator, but they are unnecessary now that the latter has been
+  removed. :gl:`#3718`
 
 Bug Fixes
 ~~~~~~~~~
 
-- A constant stream of zone additions and deletions via ``rndc reconfig`` could
-  cause increased memory consumption due to delayed cleaning of view memory.
-  This has been fixed. :gl:`#3801`
+- A constant stream of zone additions and deletions via ``rndc
+  reconfig`` could cause increased memory consumption due to delayed
+  cleaning of view memory. This has been fixed. :gl:`#3801`
 
-- Improve the speed of the message digest algorithms (MD5, SHA-1,
-  SHA-2) and NSEC3 hashing. :gl:`#3795`
+- The speed of the message digest algorithms (MD5, SHA-1, SHA-2), and of
+  NSEC3 hashing, has been improved. :gl:`#3795`
 
-- Setting :any:`parental-agents` to a resolver did not work because the RD bit
-  was not set on DS requests. This has been fixed. :gl:`#3783`
+- Pointing :any:`parental-agents` to a resolver did not work because the
