Hi All,
We are pretty excited about the release we are approaching. Thanks goes to everyone for their brilliant efforts.
The release events have always been an integral part of our releases. Many ambassadors and contributors have already started planning the parties.
As we have merely three weeks to go before the release, its time that we start working on placing things in place.
If you are planning an event, you are welcome to do it.
To make things easier to organise, please follow the steps (there are not many steps to follow though. :))
1. Start by creating an wiki page. The wikipage should be at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Release_Party_F13_<your_city>.
2. Edit the page and at the top of the page write {{subst:ReleaseParty}} and save.
3. Now fill in the details. Information requirement is minimal. You won't need more than five minutes.
4. Link your page from https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F13_release_events
If you need any budget or support for your release event, you are welcome to ask for it. Please fill in the appropriate section in your event page.
Also, we will have a meeting in the second week of May (Around 10th) to discuss issues and clarifications regarding organisation of release events. In the meanwhile, if you want to ask anything or need anything, please drop me/Tatica/Luca a mail.
Thanking you all for your brilliant efforts,

Hello Everyone,
Greetings. :) ======================================== Have you received any questions about Fedora 13, if so what were the questions? :)
Let us share our thoughts and lessons learned. :)
========================================
At your release parties, which of the Fedora Marketing Collateral do you use? :)
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing_collateral
For example, I like to use the following two:
1.) Fedora Cheat Cubes -

2.) Marketing Fedora Flyer -
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing_Fedora_flyer#Fedora_Marketing_-_Fly...
How about you other stuff? ======================================== Upcoming Release Parties - Fedora 13 -

My Thoughts,
Setup:
A real headache, I decided to use the DVD, as I am a programmer I selected 'Programming' tried to select 'graphical' but could not. No option (unless you check advanced) to install KDE or other window manager. For the inexperienced this would be appear that out distro does not have as many options as the others.
Default apps: A laugh, it was like installing windows, no open office. no gthumb. (shot-well is great for one by one photos but try and print a page of photos).
Time to install: 3 hours after sorting out all the additional apps i needed. Compared to F12 this is about twice as long.
For me a big thumbs down not for the features but the installation defaults. And after install setup.

ok all of this is covered in the Installation guide and release notes
where you using a livecd or the dvd
the default for the dvd is to install openoffice unless you deselect the office in the installer.
