Hi all, First, thanks to Ankur for taking a crack at this. It's always tougher to put the first draft on paper (so to speak) than to revise it. Thanks much for this!

Would it be > better to just say LibreOffice? This is the verbiage I propose: I think (?) that the point of including AOO is that it's new to Fedora 20? Whether it's worth highlighting in the flier is something I'm not sure about. Thoughts? FWIW, I think it'd be good to kick around what should go into a user's flier - and focusing on new features may not be the right way to go. If we assume that a user is new to Fedora, they don't really care if a feature/application appeared in Fedora 20, 19, or Fedora Core 1. They care that it exists. So how does the content of the flier speak to what our target users (target here == consumer desktop users, right?) want? ARM - very cool feature, probably not worth mentioning to this audience unless it's related to things like Raspberry Pi. GNOME - worth talking about the desktop, probably not from the perspective (exclusively) of its new features. What's awesome about GNOME for users? Sugar - if we think a large percentage of the people reading the flier are parents, might be worth mentioning this. Enlightenment/KDE - If we think the audience is Linux-savvy, it might be worth getting into desktop choice. If the audience is coming from Windows/Mac OS X, we're muddying the waters trying to talk about 3x desktop environments. Application Installer - Yes! We should highlight 1) how easy it is to install software and 2) the enormous selection of software that's at a users' fingertips when they install Fedora. Bluez 5 - if we need to mention bluetooth support, sure - but most users aren't going to know Bluez 5 from Blue's Clues. What else do we need to highlight for users? Thoughts, comments, flames?
