Yeah, but just looking at "new" packages probably won't be enough (whether getting the data from fedora-scm-requests, bodhi, or compose reports, etc.). There's just too much low-level stuff getting added all the time (and by that I mean packaging of new library dependencies, to keep all applications happy and up-to-date), but most of those "new" packages are not interesting to users at all. Still, I'd hope that most people who worked on some cool new feature for Fedora would want people to know about it? Opening a ticket to get it included in a "Cool new stuff in Fedora this $MONTH" listicle seems like a low barrier to get things out "to the world".
