This could easily go in the release announcement:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_14_announcement
Note that announcement is currently blank, and awaiting a volunteer to
assemble it from a combination of information from earlier
announcements, the release notes, and other important data. A
completed version for F13 is here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_13_announcement
I will spend some time on getting the information for the official F14
announcement. At least Chitlesh had stated it very nice as what it
means to Fedora, FEL and Milkymist on the Devel list:
http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2010-October/144222.html
I will also get some more information on what we contribute to Fedora
with this inclusion.
