[Fedora-infrastructure-list] release days docs/instructions/faq

[Mario Verbelen]

I fully agree Mike,

let freeze the project
notify only the mirror onwers
and release

If I now more what is needed to be a mirror I will have more diskspace
in january
I will have unlimited traffic upon 1T at DE
so maybe I will also mirror some stuff if it do not kill my server (qos
or other limits)

Mario,
