Actually what needs to happen is the releasenotes stuff needs to be renamed to 
something more generic like extrafiles or whatnot.  Really the methodology is 
it looks for a list of file regexes in a list of packages you give it that 
are in your tree and it extracts those files onto the root of the iso file 
system and install tree.  This can be used for not just release notes, but 
for kickstart files, autorun files, whatever else you may want in the root.
