These Docs tasks *should* be in the schedule, Ankit, you're quite correct. That's an oversight that we will get corrected as we work with John to overhaul his rendition of our schedule as well. Note that in the past they've always been on that schedule. Part of the reason they're not there now is that in the past I had often drafted the next release's schedule on the wiki after some discussion with Docs folks. I wasn't able to do that post-F9 simply for lack of spare cycles. Now that Karsten has Fedora Docs as one of his job responsibilities he's able to carve more time for things like schedule debugging. I notice this is on the Docs Project task list: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject/SteeringCommittee/Meetings Thanks for being attentive to this problem; I'm sure it can be resolved to everyone's benefit. -- Paul W.
