I think this could not be said better, we have lots of guides that help people
do things with Fedora, but they rely strictly on Fedora. As long as the guide
keeps within the realm of the "Official Fedora" world, and its helpful to a
group of people (like the Amateur Radio Guide) then I would love to include it.
