You know Fedora, we pride ourselves on our "be bold and do it"
spirit.  Well, unless we are complaining about the bureaucracy. :)

All I ask is you to send a self-intro[1] embedded in a discussion opener
to fedora-docs-list; obviously join the list.  We want to scope out
solution(s) and culture change ideas there, then bring a well formed
proposal/plan back to groups such as f-devel-l.

Within that planning process, we'll likely discover early that we need
some resourcs such as a publictest server instance to start
prototyping.  We can sort those requests out as needed.

Alternately, and we can consider this ... do we gain by keeping the
discussion on fedora-devel-list?  It feels to me that we've squeezed
the juice out of the ideas here so far, and it's time for a smaller
group (sub-project such as Docs) to take it aside and bring back
something more to squeeze.  But that is just a feeling, I'm open to
other ideas.
