What are talking points?
Talking points are developed over the course of the release. We use feature freeze as a snapshot to begin crafting the general story that the release might tell, identifying key features for users, developers, sysadmins, visionaries... different types of Fedora consumers.
By identifying the stuff that seems really cool now, we can help lean on those developers to ensure that the feature makes the next release.
Talking point selection
There are two criteria:
- general level of coolness
- likelihood that the feature will make the release
Some notes:
- Only the top three talking points are required, fit in as many as you can
- We can go up to five required, if they are short, sweet, and good
- Anything beyond that is too long, but judge yourself in your announcement
- We'll add points and move the order around until a good set arrives
Mandatory Content
According to what was in the FC-6 announcement , there is nothing mandatory. Cool.
Please Mention Somewhere
1. If you are upgrading your Fedora install, do yourself a favor and read the release notes. Changes, such as the need for file system labels, can have a major impact on your upgrade experience.
