I encourage you to consider filing a Pull Request instead. This will do
the same side-by-side change display and is immediately usable and
publishable without requiring a second verification of your backporting.

I took the asciidoc output to LibreOffice to do some 1) grammer
checking,
2) confirm accuracy, and 3) substitute better sentences to make them read
better.
I have proofed and corrected *the release notes* I am a 1/3 of the way
through the F28 installation guide.
I was unable to do this markup/correction with asciidoc as you are unable
to see the before/after on the screen.
I will be back-porting the marked up text.
Before I merge the changes into the asciidoc input, I do invite someone to
review my LibreOffice markups.
Two or more eyes looking at the mark-ups are better than mine alone.
Is there a volunteer who can read a Libreoffice document in which the text
markups and comments are presented.
Its about 1 hour to 1.5 hours to go through my markup document. American
Spelling, International English grammar.
All the user has to do is look at each change and mark accept / reject.
In your review, *Accept* replaces the old text, *R**eject* replaces the
new text and keeps the original.
That person does not have to write any new stuff, but is welcome to markup
my changes if s/he wishes to improve what I did. You can send the document
back to me for my rework.
Why this approach
=================
I was a professional tech writer for 2 years. Many of the rules I had to
follow from my then editor were used in my markups.
asciidoc input is text. It is not practical to use asciidoc to show
before/after changes to a sentence, or an added comma, etc.
With LibreOffice writer and your confirmation that my changes are "clean",
I will backport them to asciidoc text.
The changes will serve for Fedora 29 and beyond.
Contact me for a dropbox link to that marked up file.
