Someone can blog about it, and we can push it to linux.com distroblogs :)

I can't believe we didn't even consider this as a Talking Point
possibility.  I'm not sure that it should or should not be, I'm just
sure that we should have discussed it. :)

Maybe we just need to have Community Talking Points - what we're doing
with each release that isn't necessarily directly tied to the distro,
but Features / Enhancements we're making to the community. SOPs,
rawhide, FI, etc, etc. We're giving people a compelling list as to why
they should be trying out Fedora 13; why should we not have a
compelling list as to why they should try out our community?
