F18 Release Notes

[Ales Kozumplik]

Hello,

this is in reaction to Pete's mail on fedora-announce-list. I am working 
on an experimental fork of yum:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/DNF

The package is available in F18 and I'd like it to be mentioned in the 
release notes.

Many thanks,
Ales Kozumplik
