"GNOME users can burn directly from the Nautilus file manager, choose the gnomebaker or graveman packages ..."
- graveman? yum doesn't know anything about graveman in the standard repos.
"KDE users can use the robust k3b package for these tasks ..."
- you don't need to be running KDE to use k3b. but you knew that.

The release notes source material is on the Fedora wiki, and you're invited to fix problems directly in the appropriate "beat" page for that content: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/Multimedia
The update that will be out shortly will probably not include this fix -- due to the lead time for translation -- but we can always do a later one that does. I guess I would eliminate all these desktop-specific blurbs and simply name a few popular available packages.

the problem is that i don't know *how* i would fix that content in terms of rewording. in most cases, i can only point out what appear to be inaccuracies -- i don't quite have the background to know what it *should* say.

None of us have degrees in technical documentation. :-) There are probably many different ways you could fix the notes, such as:
"Fedora offers a number of other disc-burning applications, such as GnomeBaker and k3b."
"Users who want more disc-burning options can install programs such as k3b and GnomeBaker."
"The Fedora software repositories contain many other applications for burning CDs and DVDs."
The possibilities are endless! You don't even have to get it right on the first try; that's why many people have watches on the release notes beats. If something comes out written oddly, we just fix it to something that we think works better with the Fedora Style Guide. Please feel free to try your hand in the future, your contributions are welcome.

Fixed these and the command line equivalents since cdrecord has been replaced by wodim
