Fedora 8 PDF.

[Michael Beckwith]

This is a mass preliminary e-mail to three mailing lists.

What I have done so far with the marketing PDF is get the content and 
images laid out and desiring feedback for it at this stage. After I get 
some technical critique and suggestions, I'll go ahead and work on 
visual presentation.

Some notes that I have that I have seen is:

-a need to seperate some of the feature paragraphs with a line or some 
sort of visual blockage so people know where to stop.
-locate where "word divisions" is so that the justification of the text 
doesn't string out so much of the words in some areas.
-decorate and also fill the 9th page with technical information.
-find some image to use on the 1st page at the top. A header is needed.

I agree with your points above but I would add a picture of a few more
bits.  Like eclipse.  Maybe around the pictures but extra spaces and put
a subtitle under each one.

Cheers,

Release Summary Final

[Jonathan Roberts]

Hi all,

I've just removed the draft tag from the top of the release summary. To
me it looked like it was in good shape, and today is release day!

Hope this was OK with everyone, if not just revert the change and we'll
get it ready asap!

Best wishes,

Jon
