We have to be careful that we don't alienate them. This two-pronged approach is valuable -- explain deep technical matters in a simple enough way for the wider audience, then link to an appropriate beat page. This is a way to make the beats more active and useful, as a place developers can show off package work sooner and more in their control; as more than just a dumping place for content that 'eventually' makes it in to the release notes. There is a natural opportunity from the beat to link back to feature pages, which fill this similar purpose of showing work sooner and more (pro)actively. - Karsten -- Karsten 'quaid' Wade, Community Gardener http://quaid.fedorapeople.org AD0E0C41
