I started contributing after the F10 Alpha, so forgive my
disorientation.

Is the goal for the Alpha relnotes[1] to be as close to complete as
possible? A snapshot up to this point? If so, why isn't it based off the
page[2] which transcludes all the current beats? There are beats updated
for F11 which aren't included on "one-sheet". 

I do realize there are cutoffs and deadlines for moving content around.
I just had the impression last time that content moved through the
pipeline quickly/automagically after being updated in a beat. I could be
deluded though (I know Karsten worked his butt off).

If only the text on this one-sheet page[1] is going to go into creating
the static end result[3], it seems it might be helpful to users if we at
least link from this one-sheet page to the more complete (albeit
inconsistent at this early stage) Beats in progress jumbo page[2].

/me still stubbornly thinks of the wiki content as the end result rather
than a way point. I realize that isn't practical for L10N though.
