These aren't empty titles, they are roles to be fulfilled in a process. 
Not intended to add bureaucracy, just layers to get stuff done and make
sure it is of a consistent quality.

Somewhere toward the end I mention that we may want to have a
fedora-docs RPM that goes in Core, Extras, etc., which contains a
snapshot of documentation for the related version of FC.  That package
would need a maintainer, in addition to having a process to decide what
goes into the package.

I'll disagree about that being a valid use of Emacs, but whatever. ;-)

You can't blindly indent the document and walk away.  If you anything in
a <screen> or <programlisting> block that requires specific formatting
(white space, etc.) -- such as code from a program, example from a
config file, or a series of command line examples -- doing a DTD based
indent will likely mess up those sections.  If that is not true, I'd be
very happy to see a demonstration.  Otherwise, I will continue to
manually C-c C-q my XML in Emacs.

Not a problem to do it myself, just wanted to get it more set in
sandstone before going over from plain text. :)
