Write your own local release announcement

[Karsten Wade]

Instead of writing a dry, boring English release announcement for
translation ...

You are encouraged to write your own announcement, in your native
language, for your region of the world.

Please collaborate with other members of your localization/Ambassador
community for your 'formal' announcement.

Ambassadors -- please lead this effort within your language/locale.

Here are the points to discuss:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Talking_points_for_F10

You do not need to cover most or all of those; pick what you think
your audience wants to hear about the most. 

This page explains the process in more detail, with links to previous
announcements:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Release_announcements

Still fixing a few things on that page, but it's usable right now. :)

Appreciate if you could let us know by when and how we have to submit 
the local release announcement.

Thanks in advance

Sorry I missed this question, even though it is past the release, an
explanation is in order.

These release announcements are for use in your local region.  No one
in Fedora is gathering these to send out.  The best resource is to
work with your local Ambassador team(s), who know where to send
announcements regionally.  Ideas include:

* News media outlets (websites, newspapers, etc.)
* Technical journalists
* Technical and free/open bloggers
* Educational organizations (IEEE, etc.)
* User groups (LUGs, JUGs, etc.)

I'll add this to the [[Release announcemens]] wiki page.
