I've pushed this on to the demo site [1], comments at the top hold the instructions.

It needs tweaks to docsite-publican, hope to get those committed soon.

It also needs Fedora_Splash which contains the blurb on the Fedora products page and the groupings, not sure what to do about that.

It will still work without those things, it just won't look exactly the same.
