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
