This is here partly for upgrade paths. In the past, the release notes were a
part of fedora-release anyway, there was no separation. We split them up so
that the Docs folks could work on the notes independently from the
fedora-release package. To ensure that notes stayed on the system in the
event of upgrades, fedora-release requires the release-notes.
That said, for your tiny spin you could make an empty or tiny package that
provided fedora-release-notes that just had a single file explaining what the
LiveCD was for and all that. You would be able to save a lot of space with
that. Of course, then you wouldn't be able to call it Fedora, but then
again, I don't want to see something produced as "Fedora" that didn't include
our release notes.
Hmm, I understand, but I find this a bit harsh, I actually find Peter's
striving for a minimal minimal install a good thing, including the not
including 600k of release notes? Can't we have a text only version of them or
something like that??

Hans
