This would be a great oppty for a blog posting on www.press.redhat.com,
Red Hat's corporate communications blog. We've posted a number of
"Fedora Team" blogs in the past that Max has helped us put together:
http://www.press.redhat.com/category/fedora/. We use this site to give
our press contacts more information about what's going on within Red Hat
when a press release isn't the right medium of communication. I can put
together a draft of the blog from the Alpha release notes link you've
sent, and will then send around for feedback/edits. We can post it this
week once we've finalized the content. What do you think?
Yeah that sounds awesome and would be much appreciated :)
Looking forward to seeing it...

Here is a quick first draft of the blog. Anyone is welcome to add in
edits or more details.

As Fedora (http://www.fedoraproject.org) contributors, the most exciting
part of the development process of new Fedora distributions is
determining which cool, new features will be included in the next
release. Fedora 9 is due out at the end of April 2008, and we started
making plans for it as soon as we released Fedora 8 back in November.
We’ve already begun to examine which changes and features we want
included in this release, and with the Fedora 9 Alpha release today,
it’s time for the whole community’s input.
During each Fedora cycle, we have an Alpha release that gives everyone
This is a great start. Note, however, that the "Alpha release" is only
the beginning of the testing cycle which has a primary focus of making
sure the distro installs and runs.
There will also be a beta release and a series of weekly snapshot
releases. More information can be found on the release engineering
schedule:
