 There is no easy way to know when our next Fedora will be released.
 People should look for the right wiki page, and there could be frequent
 updates.

 I propose to design a simple page containing the main schedules (Alpha,
 Beta and GA releases).
 The data would be taken from the online official schedule (parsing as XML
 I think). This would be shared by ou main fpo websites (for the countdown
 banner..)

 The content would be in fpo/get-prerelease and on a secondary page like
 schedule.fpo? or just fpo/schedule?

Comment (by robyduck):

 IMO it's useful to have a schedule page, but just fpo/schedule. This means
 importing the schedule directly to fp.o sites instead of having it "only"
 on the wiki, right?

 If yes, we should consider linking the fpo/schedule page also in the main
 fpo page, as requested in ticket #162. If I remember right we have a link
 to the wiki scheduling page during Alpha and Beta stage, although it's not
 very visible actually.

 If we want to have such a page, which imports the schedule as XML, we
 could use this page also for:
 * Autohide the Alpha button at "Release date + 10 days" (for example) #141
 * Manage the release counter better by grabbing the date automatically
 #142

Comment (by kevin):

 One thing related to this to note is that we are looking at rolling
 fedocal out to production before too long.

 https://admin.stg.fedoraproject.org/calendar/

 is the staging instance.

 Perhaps we could leverage that and a Fedora calendar on it with the
 schedule?
 But it might be it doesn't meet your needs for counters or other things.

Comment:

 I think fedocal is more about contributor meetings or why not events. Our
 page will just be a static entry for marketing. Jreznik, your opinion?
