 Pardon my severe ignorance on the history and role of these pages, but

 Looking at the history of that page, it seems to always get done I was
 just curious if there was a plan to update such pages and if someone
 was already tasked with it ??

Great question Jonathan.  Previously I always did it at the time of GA
release.  Around the time when the F13 announcement was released, I
visited the appropriate wiki pages for editing:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Template:FedoraVersionNumber
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Template:FedoraVersionName

Note that each needs to be edited to include up to Fedora (next+2),
that is, Fedora 16 in the case of Fedora 14 release.  I have no
problem doing it for this release.

This should probably be part of a release day SOP, either in Websites,
Infrastructure, or Marketing.  I would recommend contacting those
other teams to see if either thinks they have this particular ball.
If not, it's fair game for a Marketing release day SOP if the team's
interested in making one.

One page release notes status

2010-10-27 Thread Paul W. Frields
In yesterday's meeting[1] I told Robyn I'd post to the list with a
status update for one-page release notes.  You can find the F14 one
page release notes (predictably!) ;-) here:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F14_one_page_release_notes

We've certainly made some progress in the last 24 hours, thanks to all
those that helped.  However, we could still use some additional work
on this page.  Here are some of the tasks that need to be done, and we
need your help (attention, lurkers!) to finish them!

* Information in the desktop section.

  Here's what Robyn and I wrote in yesterday's meeting minutes about
  what to add here:

  # IDEA: screenshot of a web browser, evolution client, and empathy
(rbergeron, 20:23:21)

  # IDEA: Desktop: Central focus -- you can get instant access to all
your favorite tools through the Web, email, and messaging --
stable as a rock and full of features (stickster, 20:24:09)

  There may not be an enormous number of new productivity user feature
  in F14 but the Desktop remains completely solid in this release -- a
  place where people can really get done all the things they care
  about.

  So, the text there needs to be written, and a screenshot made.

* Screenshots for sysadmin and developer sections.

  Use your imagination for these.  For example, do we have a way to
  screenshot making a Fedora 14 instance on EC2?  (Even a Fedora 13
  instance would be OK, if the screenshot isn't so large as to be
  glaring about the difference.)  Another example for the developer
  section might be a window shot of the GDB 'heap' command.

* Get more photos into the layout.

  Robyn indicated a bunch of these had been picked out from recent
  FUDCons so we could share them with the community in the one page
  release notes.  This is one of the best features of the document
  IMHO!

* If needed, produce a PDF.

  This might take some work from someone in Design, taking page
  elements and putting them in Scribus or something else to produce a
  beautiful front-and-back handout.

I think this task is already tracked as part of the Infrastructure
release SOP:

2010-10-27 Thread Paul W. Frields
I talked to Jared yesterday and he confirmed he'll help to finish the
community release announcement[1] for F14 GA, and the Red Hat press
release that goes out day-and-date.
