Marketing team -- here's the letter we could send to students
and
ambassadors for help with the one-page release notes. Please review
and comment. If we need to make a lot of edits, no problem -- I'll
move this to the wiki and we can work on it there.

Hello,
The Fedora Marketing team is once again working on a "One-Page Release
Notes" to promote the next Fedora release, Fedora 13 "Goddard." We
produced a version of this document for the Fedora 12 release for
which feedback was positive.
It's an attractive document that shows off the fun and excitement of
being involved in the Fedora community, and it also highlights some of
the changes in the release. The Fedora 12 version can be found here
on the wiki, and several translations and alternate formats are also
linked there:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_12_one_page_release_notes
We would like to refresh the content with brand-new photographs from
our communities around the world. Here is our plan:
* The Marketing and Docs teams will create some placeholder content on
the new page for Fedora 13, found here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_13_one_page_release_notes
* The placeholders will include narrative and links for important
features from the Fedora 13 talking points and elsewhere in the
Fedora 13 release notes that can be easily illustrated by
photographs and screenshots.
* All photographs *must* be licensed either Creative Commons
Attribution, or Attribution-ShareAlike (CC-BY or CC-BY-SA). We
cannot use photographs without proper licensing, or with CC
NonCommercial or NoDerivatives (NC, ND) type licensing.
Do we have any rules regarding things like needing consent from the
photograph subject (if it is a person), regardless of license type?
Particularly if they are pictures of minors? (Think students in a
classroom, etc.)
Other than that - this looks dandy to me. Just want to avoid wading
in those murky legal waters if we can. :) I'm not sure how CC
licensing handles these types of things offhand.

* Anyone who wants to submit a photograph can post it to Flickr, or
their
FedoraPeople.org space. If you need help setting up to use
your
Fedorapeople.org space, refer to this wiki page:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedorapeople.org
* DON'T upload the photo straight to the wiki (for now). We'll want
confirm the licensing, and crop and edit photos before uploading
them, to save space and time.
* Screenshots are also useful! Make sure you are using the complete
default theme for Fedora 13 without customizations. A good way to
ensure this is to use a *fresh user account* to generate
screenshots, so you're using default settings.
