Release Notes Beats

Where the Beats are Written

Come help cover the relnotes beats at Docs/Beats .

Beat writers must be subscribed to the content flow mailing list.

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

If you are looking to file a release note, please use this pre-filled bugzilla template . If you want to know more about writing for the Documentation Project, refer to ["DocsProject/NewWriters"] .

The release notes are available online with the rest of Fedora documentation.
