Updates:
========

* Working on getting a docs-needed field/switch in bugzilla:
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla-devel/show_bug.cgi?id=166310

* Wiki
  - need to embrace
  - ACL control of wiki/Docs/ to DocWriters, some pages to DocEditors
  - every page that is documentation has a clear owner, and some ACLs
    when it's promoted
  - promoted will eventually mean the canonical is in XML in CVS, with
    the Wiki pulling from there
  - all non-finished pages are part of Docs Rawhide
  
* First proposed schedule

2 November  - test1 documentation freeze
7 November  - test1 release
7 December  - test2 documentation freeze
12 December - test2 release
4 January   - test3 documentation freeze
9 January   - test3 release
1 February  - FC5 documentation freeze (final)
13 February - FC5 release

* Second proposed schedule to include trans freezes

* Working on Docs Rawhide
  - autobuild from CVS
  - all Wiki content that is not promoted

* Working on a special keyword for developers to use in commit logs
  that will tag the log content as wanting docs attention, usually for
  release notes.

Actions:
========

Karsten - make [docme] the keyword, work with Sopwith on how soon to
	  start

Karsten - get a new ACL group DocEditors for special doc-locked pages,

All - offer help to Elliot for infrastucture testing, tech help, etc.

Karsten - take trans CVS organization to f-docs-l

Karsten - update docs/trans schedule to include trans freeze,
	  recognize packagin

Tommy - multi-lingual Makefile
