Well, you said you found it strange that there was no documentation or announcement for the Fedora 29 template. These links show why: the documentation is still being worked on, and the necessary steps prior to the announcement have not yet been completed. (In fact, at the time of this writing, the issue still indicates that the template has not yet migrated to the stable repo, which appears to be false.) In order to avoid this sort of confusion in the future, perhaps we should refrain from migrating new templates to the stable repo until documentation and an announcement are ready to be published, then do it all simultaneously.
