Would be nice, but ...

Fedora has a lot of different audiences.  A huge feature to one audience is 
a non-event to another.  The release summary on the wiki tries to get at the 
big hitters, but those are big hitters in one person's opinion.  In releases 
like the upcoming one, even the release notes themselves are hard to triage. 
There are a huge number of changes, so many that even the "important" 
changes will likely make the release notes too long.  We almost need 
seperate announcements for each audience.
