Can you help make the world’s best Linux release notes?

Almost time to freeze and fork the wiki into the Fedora 9 (Sulphur) release notes. This release we did not rely as much upon assigned writers to cover the different content areas (the beats) for two reasons. The developers and packagers have gotten much better at finding and editing their relevant content. Also, the feature process is doing a lot of the work of gathering release notes about important Fedora initiatives.

On 16 March we take a snapshot of the wiki, convert it to XML, and roll a POT file for the translators. This is included with the Preview Release (PR) of Fedora 9 as a preview of the release notes. Any fixes and additions from that work goes into the wiki by you all, then we manually carry changes into the XML for the F9 gold release notes.

    Those methods are set to change very soon to make it easier to be a wiki editor.
