Release Notes Galore

With the approaching F10 release[1] the Docs team spent time this week getting release note beats updated and organized. A lot of progress was made updating the beats to include pertinent package information as well as all the new features[2] and it looks like there may be a new format for the release notes as well[3]. There has also been a lot of work on getting the release-note structure to be compatible with publican[4]. Once compatible with publican the release-notes will support additional formats (HTML, PDF, etc.).

Documentation Repository Changes

The Docs Project has been working to convert from CVS as the main repository for published documents to git[1]. More progress on that front was made this week as the Install-Guide[2] was moved over. The implementation of git and trac[3] allows for better group communication and work flow management with contributors.
