Is this the schedule: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject/Schedule Is one day (between the 16th and 17th of March), enough time to convert the wiki to docbook?

This was my plan for the release notes, please advise if it is wrong/will make everything explode: 1. checkout release-notes/devel (I did this earlier). 2. follow the instructions here: http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/release-notes/devel/xmlbeats/steps-to-convert-FC7.txt?root=docs&view=markup Massive kudos to the people who made those scripts possible! 3. chuck the xml files in the release-notes/devel/en_US directory 4. make pot (?) 5. commit. Thanks again for your help.
