Based on Zbigniew's feedback, and working with Matt Miller's
announcement from the Red Hat blog, I have put together a new draft for
review. Please review at your earliest convenience[1]

Peace,

Hey Brian, I just had a chance to review. Overall, this looks awesome and it's exciting to see the "story" component to the release announcement covered ahead of time. I'm also CCing the Magazine list as a reference for the F25 Beta announcement on the Magazine.

For the snippet about Wayland, maybe it would also be good to mention some of the security benefits of it over X11? Even though I anticipate there to be kickback regardless, I think the security benefits over X11 might be a good point to highlight too along with the usability enhancements. I'm not super informed on what the specific security enhancements are other than separation/contained windows, but this shouldn't be too hard to find.

Other than that, this all looks good to me. The Magazine edition should definitely make use of linking to some of the bigger things mentioned in the wiki article, like something about Project Atomic.

    "Download the prerelease from our Get Fedora site:"
    → "Download the release from ..."

    This text is very low level for a "general release announcement". This
    long list of detailed features is certainly informative, but it's not
    something that'd make a casualr use think "Oh, new, shiny! I need to
    try this out". At least the truly new stuff should be put first:
    - Rust
    - FMW
    - Gnome 3.22 and Wayland by default
      I think that those two deserve more than a terse note
    - Flatpak support
    - Python 3.4, 3.3, 2.6

    I'm sure that there's more stuff. What about the switchable graphics
    support?

    systemd 231 added initial support for the unified cgroup hierarchy,
    a.k.a. cgroups2.  This is only enabled by a kernel command-line switch
    (systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=1). It's quite low-level, but it
    exposes an important kernel development, so it might be worth
    mentioning.
