Good point, I put a starter tweet out there.

One additional thing that occurred to me is that the Red Hat Summit
staff already knows about, and will be promoting, the @fedora_linux
feed.  I'm interested in making sure our timing is right for the
transition.  We have over 7,500 followers on @fedora_linux, and
ideally we want every single one of them to follow @fedora (and more).

Would we want to wait until after the Summit, so that we don't create
confusion?  And take that time to plan our strategy for how to get
people to follow the new account?
