Well, I *was* tirelessly going in the wrong direction :), and really
should have figured out much sooner that I was expecting the near
impossible.  So I'll happily take any brickbats...

Mayank (Sharma) sent me an initial draft, and I'll ping him.

Yes, I think that we should define what sort of document we want this
project to produce (per separate thread on the FAQ, and not competing
with other projects).   IIRC, there's a bit of a precedent for
Enterprise and Fedora using different terms to distinguish between the
slightly different deliverables (bug fixes vs. errata).
