Hello, Fedora Marketing Manager--

Linux Magazine International (which is called Linux Pro Magazine in the US) is planning on including Fedora Core 6 with an upcoming issue. We have a very international audience, and I think we'll be able to provide some great coverage of Fedora for readers around the world.

Thank you for your interest.


We're in the process of lining up some information on Fedora for promotional materials that will accompany the issue Would it be possible for someone at Fedora to supply us with the following?

1. A brief statement of what your goals were for the latest
release.

Desktop effects, improved performance and better integrated virtualization were some of the major goals.

2. A list of any new features in this release that were not
included in previous versions.

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FC6ReleaseSummary

3. Press releases and other descriptive documents.

Red Hat would have a press release out when the release is made.

4. A summary of Help sources (both official and independent).

We have a wiki version of the release notes currently at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats. The release would have a html copy.


5. Other useful links with relevant information.

The first part of my overview is available at http://www.redhat.com/magazine/024oct06/features/fc6/?sc_cid=bcm_edmsept_007

Phoronix did a review of FC6 Test 1 at http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=499&num=1

6. System requirements.

Same as the previous release. Part of the release notes. Here is the development copy.

7. 4-6 interesting and representative screenshots (normal
height/width ratio, _not_ wide-screen, .png files).

My review has a couple of them. There is more at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Tours/FedoraCore6

8. A complete package list.

The published release notes would have this. The current development version is representative.

Note that we are on a short cycle with this, since we are printing next week. If possible, we would like to receive any or all information by next Monday 10/16. If you don't have all the answers by next Monday, please just send along the information you do have. The screenshots and the package list are particularly important.

Feel free to call me if you have any questions: (USA) 785-832-8615
