Hello Everyone,

Dan, thank you for your post.  :)

Some people must have put some effort to build that Wiki's content and definite update would be grand. :)

+1 for Twitter and +1 for Facebook. :D A need of followers and subscribers.  ;)

I like using wordpress base entries with appropriate "tag" words for broadcasting content. :)

Thank you
Sincerely,
- David -

I’ve asked informally about this on IRC. Things should be properly vetted before they are posted on behalf of the organization. In addition, these pages are not updated very well. They’d be a great way to get feedback from users in a less hostile environment (compared to IRC). Also, many things can be put up there such as tutorials, faqs, and guides.  Also recent major bugfixes can be announced and people can post questions and be answered by other users on the page. I think Facebook and Twitter would be the 2 most important networks to have an official Fedora page.
