Generally looks good. Some of the references to 9.3 in the 9.4 release
notes don't seem relevant though - I guess you intend to adjust them
when "spreading" the notes to all versions? Specifically "You must use
<productname>PostgreSQL</> 9.3.5 or later to perform this step." seems
likely to confuse users, given there's no corresponding 9.4 release.
I wonder if it'd be good to weaken "Users can avoid that by doing manual
vacuuming <emphasis>before</> upgrading to this release." a bit, further
emphasizing that that's optional.
