Correct, but it is a bit too early to talk about concrete content for 
F10, without having defined the features list, the general look and 
feel, a tagline, etc.

But I will go further and list a crazy idea (while I don't have the 
means to implement it, I still think is cool) about emphasizing the 
people aspect of Fedora: get hold of a bunch of Fedora developers, 
clothe them in the XIX century style (complete with accessories, fake 
moustaches), take some photos, get a heavy GIMPing session to make them 
look like from 100-150 years ago (sepia, soft focus, stains) and use 
them as material for the slides.
