As Rahul points out, this is a historical understanding only. :) The default home page has been useful for some time. Also, before taking that fuller control (and spawning fedora-release-notes rather than rustle this into fedora-release), we did a lot of work to make the release notes more interesting as first content. Feature overviews were pushed to the top of the content (and ToC), and work was done to make those appear above the fold for most folks. We've been doing that since FC4 or so, iirc. Also, considering that all of the release notes have linked to the live version for some time, and both have a link to the common bugs-per-release page(s), these are potentially useful for every single user who has an issue with the release. These features are more useful than the standard link to report a bug that one gets in other release notes. This process allowed Fedora helpers (#fedora, etc.) to get bug fix information out to the community in a rapid and efficient manner. All-in-all, more useful than just to 1% of the users. :) - Karsten -- Karsten Wade, Developer Community Mgr.
