The two things I ask myself before adding something to the Alpha or Beta release notes is a) is this feature high impact? b) can it cause regressions or does it require targeted testing? If either or both of it is true, then it is worth adding. We will generally carry over what is added to the alpha/beta one page release notes to the final one but if you want to do that yourself, do that in http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Documentation_Beats Rahul -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
