It is mentioned in the Networking section.  The entire document is arguably
relevant to a sysadmin, but I can see where placing that in the higher
level Desktop category might be confusing.  This bears examination for the
next release, IMO.

Many changes could arguably fit into multiple beats - subcategories in the
document - and we try to pick the most appropriate one. Desktop changes vs
system administrator changes is mostly a way to organize content rather
than define scope, and perhaps an unneeded one.

Yes, it is too late to change this.  I might take time away from other work
for outright factual errors and such, but not for an aesthetic
reorganization.

By the way, docs at lists.fedoraproject.org might be more appropriate.
