I know that I have always read the release notes for Fedora ever since I started using it regularly (FC5 I believe), but I have also been following the release notes for Gnome and also KDE 4 when it came out. And I have to say, maybe it's just me, but I was far more "wowed" and "awed" by the Gnome & KDE release notes than the Fedora ones. I still got what I wanted from the Fedora ones, but the Gnome & KDE ones really gave me that desire to try them out. Maybe we can take some lessons from them? Also, I think they tend to be more of "release announcements" rather than "release notes", if such a distinction can be made. They tend not to include much information such as known issues, unless buried deeper or linked away, which is something I think we can go for or benefit from as well. ________________________________________________________________________ Basil Mohamed Gohar abu_hurayrah@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx www.basilgohar.com
