So the thing to keep in mind here is stuff we normally do vs stuff we don't normally do. The date for coordination with ambassadors is fine because they don't typically ask for materials that we don't already have templates for / haven't already done. That is in contrast to an alpha date for extra requests - of a nature we haven't done before. E.g., if there is a new type of download media we're offering that needs some kind of new image format, or if someone decides they want to have a huge wall sticker design to celebrate the new release - it's really most helpful to know these things by Alpha so we have time to do the almost-endless back & forth to understand the new specifications / vendor and/or technology requirements and limitations / etc. etc. ~m _______________________________________________ design-team mailing list design-team@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team
