I went through and made some minor grammatical and spelling changes as well as one moderate functional change: I replaced the use of "orphan" in the text with "retire". Since we know already that we don't want those packages in the distro any longer, we shouldn't just leave them orphaned.

There's no strong reason to remove the existing packages from their system (and doing so could potentially break third-party software relying on it). It's enough to not provide a newer version. (Also the metadata size cost associated with adding hundreds of nodejs-* packages to the Obsoletes: list is non-trivial).
