== What is a Beat? ==
 
A beat for a writer is a fixed area that you write about.  For journalists, covering the proceedings of the local city council is a beat, as would the writer covering the local sporting events.
 
For the Fedora release notes, a beat covers an area of the release.  This puts writers who are interested in a topic in direct contact with the developers of the software.  Developers get to know who is their writer, and can send over information knowing it will be documented, visible, and highly available.
 
More information on the process is available at
 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject/ReleaseNotes/Process
 
== Filing A Release Note Request ==

== Fedora Release Notes Beats ==
 
Content in the beats may be derived from bugzilla reports and mailing list discussions.
 
Each beat has one or more beat writers, as assigned on the [[DocsProject/Beats| release notes beats]] page. The beat writer(s) are in charge of the beat pages. These pages are open for all to contribute. If you know something that should be in the release notes, this is the place to put it.
 
{{admon/tip | Read [[DocsProject/Writing_Using_The_Wiki]] before editing Release Notes pages. This ensures that you write content we can convert into DocBook for the published Release Notes.}}
 
Writers can learn about how this works on the [[Docs/Beats/HowTo| Docs/Beats/HowTo]] page.
 
The page Docs/Beats uses a Wiki include that pulls in the content from the separate beat pages. The actual beat page is located at Docs/Beats/Beatname.
 
The current version we are writing for is Fedora Final.

If you feel a beat is missing, put it in where you think it fits best, and the editors will work with you from there.
