Don't be silly, Rahul, everybody knows we Americans can't read. :-)

In all seriousness, I'm betting your question is rhetorical and stems
from the frustration of putting so much work into the process only to
see endless questions like this.  (Your work is very much appreciated,
by the way.)  In case it's not rhetorical, perhaps we could put a big
modal dialog at the opening of Anaconda saying something like,

"Hidden in the release notes is a secret key to enabling MP3, DVD, and
Shockwave in your new Fedora system.  To find it, you'll have to read
them to find the secret.  Click 'OK' to open the Release Notes window."
