Over at fedora-docs, there is ongoing discussion on the scope of the
release notes. At present, the release notes have evolved from a
document containing the relevant new features and important bug-fixes
into a document containing those items as well as an assortment of
extra basic documentation and howtos. For example, take the "Live
Image" section in the f10 notes [1], this is basically a brief
overview on Live Images (which were not a new feature in f10.)
The fedora-docs project would like to get the input from the
developers on the release notes. Should we restrict the release notes
to being a document of the new and exciting features in the newest
release, and move the older, not so fresh documentation into the
relevant guides (such as the install guide)?
Any other suggestions on the possible scope and direction of the
release notes are appreciated also!
Yeah, I would like to see the release notes be smaller and just contain
new information for the release. You could easily have a pointer to the
install guide or other docs that contain more verbose info or info
thats repeated every release.
