Hi Baruch,

In addition to this change the note on the previous item should be indented to the level of the bullet item. It is probably worth making that change at the same time.

Also, the Python version should probably say 2.7+ and 3.2+ if this patch is accepted: 

    http://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/17775/

However, since that change hasn't been acked/merged yet you can leave that part of your patch as it is and I'll fix the version numbers in the other patch.

John
