To someone not familiar with Fedora wouldn't they expect http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/8/FeatureList and http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/8/ReleaseSummary to contain the same information or for there to only be one page? The ReleaseSummary page is really good by the way!
Feature list is more developer oriented. Release Summary is a subset of the feature list highlighting major features and "themes". If there are for example 3 user interface related features, 4 security related ones and 2 performance related ones, we want to highlight them together in the release summary. The actual release announcement is sort of like a easter language and is not easily translatable and we needed an alternative that was closer to a press release. It is in fact the press release writing attempt that was combined with the release notes overview and morphed into the release summary for Fedora Core 5 and since it turned out be fairly successful (a lot of users and reviews referenced that), we continue doing it.
