I apologize for this summary being so late to the list, but here goes:

Summary for Docs meeting, 2009-03-12:
-------------------------------------

* Next item due for F11 release cycle: 2009-03-23, Beta one sheet
  release notes on wiki.

  TASKS:
  (jjmcd to coordinate)
  * Make new wiki page from the Alpha one-sheet
  * Check features and beats for content to mention or include
  * Post to fedora-devel-list with notification to community
  * Complete editing by 22 March


* Group discussed how to deal with discrepancy in the way Publican
  handles SRPM building vs. Fedora packaging guidelines.
  * jjmcd has a wiki page with one attempt at hacking the process:
    http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Jjmcd/Drafts/Converting_Publican_RPM_for_Fedora
  * Patches to the Fedora-specific Makefile might work, someone would
  need to write them
  * There are still unresolved questions about parallel installable
  docs for different releases (i.e. installing X_Guide_for_F10 and
  X_Guide_for_F11 at the same time)
  
  TASKS:
  (mdious)
  * Check to see who was tasked with finding out where and why
  packaging guidelines for Red Hat and Fedora are different


* Paul explained current release notes process as reflected on the
  schedule:
  https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-docs-list/2009-March/msg00021.html
  http://poelstra.fedorapeople.org/schedules/f-11/f-11-docs-tasks.html
* Paul will be on vacation April 12-21, during the critical time for
  F11 Preview release notes.

  TASKS:
  (All Docs team members)
  * Read and understand the schedule and process, and ask questions on
  the list if anything's unclear
