[publican-list] Publican 1.0

[Michael Hideo]

Folks,

This is a heads up email for the plan to begin testing Publican 1.0 on 
Fedora.

These are the actions we are looking at right now to begin alpha testing 
the software:

F12 Guides
==========
* Installation Guide
* Security Guide
* Deployment Guide
* Virtualization Guide
* Release Notes

We will need someone from l10n to check that the translations come out 
cleanly. Additionally, we will need a dedicated person to do QE against 
the new bugs and to regression test against the old bugs. Also we need 
someone to work between l10n and QE to ensure that all the langs still 
build correctly.

A few other activities that need to performed:

* Brands need to be repackaged (cc-by-sa for fedora/rh)
* Need to start a lock on the test repos

Rough timeline is sometime in the next 2 weeks. Note that the publican 
software has been completely re-written from the ground up. Apparently 
it will not use a "make" system but will use proper commands and 
actions. This will provide more flexibility for the future and allow us 
to be cross platform.

More timelines and infotainment to come shortly.
