I don't think it's a good idea to spell-correct these automatically
generated release notes -- if anyone reads them, and they find
something they want to look, to see the diff, then their only option
is to search for the given commit message in 'git log -p'.  If this
string no longer matches...

But /if/ it is okay to make spelling fixes to the release notes, then
also s/determing/determining/, and s/take account week numbers/
take week numbers into account/.  Many of Sami's commit lines
would need to be tweaked -- sorry, Sami.  :)

No worries Benno. I know I don't care any human languages. It is
nothing to be proud of but that's how my mind works.

 Applied (except the changes in *ReleaseNotes), thanks!
