Fedora 22 Alpha release announcement

[Jaroslav Reznik]

Hey everyone!
As Fedora 22 Alpha is coming, the readiness meeting is this week, I'd like
to have draft release announcement draft written prior the meeting, sooner
than later (even there's still possibility of Alpha delays).

Crossposting so this email finds the right people to provide the content :).

As always, place to coordinate/write announcement is at:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F22_Alpha_release_announcement

It's basic template based on F21 Alpha announcement.

Thanks
Jaroslav

Willing to take point here, but if folks could send me some bullet
points (or more) on what's interesting/new in the release that's
appropriate for the alpha, that'd be greatly appreciated.

Or just add your bullets to the wiki.

Best,

Roshi is going to take a look on Cloud/bring it to the meeting. We
have a few points for Server. So Workstation is needed now.

And thanks Joe!

I'll take this on for Workstation.  I have the page open in my editor
now, as a matter of fact, though I may not have changes done by today.

Ok,

need email formatted version for Dennis.

Thanks everyone for help!

Sorry for jumping in so late to help with this. The draft looks good.

I went and looked at the changeset, just out of curiosity - do you think
things like "moving from yum to dnf" and the new
django/gcc/boost/ruby/ruby-on-rails versions are worth mentioning in the
announcement?

Attached, with several edits over what was there this morning. Added
some clarification on some points about things like "ABRT" used w/out
expanding the acronym, etc. (Remember we can't assume people reading the
release announcements know what things like GActions or ABRT or CI are
without some context.)

I can also make sure this gets into Fedora Magazine in the morning
unless someone else has it.

Best,

Thanks Joe!

One more thing I realized while doing last review - the pre-release link
has to be updated. I'm checking it with websites guys.

Updated links - unfortunately I don't know it there's one generic link for
all downloads. This is what I get while looking to GIT and tried on stage.

Looks good. I just added 4 or 5 words to it - just cosmetic additions
mainly.

And the last version from me - consistent bullets for links with the
rest of the announcement...

Looks great to me!

      ^

I'm seeing these bullet point indicators rendered weirdly in different
mail systems.... Something is losing the character set. Maybe better to
just go with "*" or "-"?

Where and what? Because that is probably after I pulled it for the blog.
Really late additions need to be synced. ;-)
