Beats and Changes - Writers wanted!

Tue Aug 27 04:35:44 UTC 2013

Hello,

Beats for Fedora 20 Release Notes are open. Take a look at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:Documentation_beats?rd=Docs/Beats ,
find something that interests you, and take a beat!  If you do sign on,
be sure to add your name to the appropriate column of the tracking
table. More than one writer per beat is good, especially if they
communicate, but zero writers for a beat is bad. You might also want to
pick up the Changes bugs that apply in your beat, a new process for this
release.

I've created a number of bugzilla tickets to help track Changes in the
next version of Fedora. Please pick some up!  The Change process is
outlined at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Policy and the
current accepted proposals are at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/20/ChangeSet .

The are three tickets for each Change listed below: the Change tracker
bug (CH), the bug for representing the change in the Release Notes (RN),
and a bug against docs-requests to track impact of the Change on other
guides.

So, here's the process. Each Change page on the wiki has a "release
notes owner" - that's us.  Pick up the RN bug, and you are now the
Release Notes contact for the Change. You'll be responsible for writing
the changes into a beat on the wiki or directly to git, and ideally
reviewing the copy with the Change owner. I like to make sure that the
information is as actionable as possible, or at least refers the reader
to actionable information.

The Changes will also impact our existing Guides. Ideally, the same
person taking the RN bug will take the DR bug as well. You'll be
responsible for identifying sections of currently maintained guides that
need updating because of the Change in question.  I'm thinking a few
choice grep invocations through your directory of docs repos should work
in most cases. If you find something, open a new bug against the guide
in question.

The first round of tickets are those identified as System Wide Changes:
