From Fedora Project Wiki
This page contains the schedule template for the marketing project.
This schedule depends on Fedora General release schedule.
At every release, this schedule should be copied over to a page named Marketing $RELEASE schedule to work with.
Currently we are on the F11 cycle, the schedule can be found here Marketing F11 Schedule
