These are just my own thoughts, but I feel like if we want to really
find a good way to tell the real story of Fedora, I believe that
incorporating the motto into the release notes is a good idea of finding
that story, such as ways that Fedora, both as the distribution and the
community, have lived up to protecting Freedom, how Fedora has brought
Friends together by impacting either the overall Linux or even just
Fedora community, the exciting and innovating Features the new release
includes for users and developers, and how we are innovating First. The
motto is the first thing that stands out to me as how to best extract
the Exciting Story of Fedora 23 - although I know it would take the
collaboration of many others to pull something together in the 15 days
we have left before the release.
I'm not quite sure what exactly is envisioned for this release note, but
if we're looking at deferring the technical notes to more detailed
sources and including a more "human" side to this release announcement,
I think we have material from the past six months all around that could
support all four foundations of the project.
Like Remy mentioned, time is of the essence, so I would think a
direction should be determined soon and then others in the community
should be contacted to pull together this story.
Cheers,

In the past, it's been either a collaborative effort of marketing, and
in other times, it's been the inspired pen of the FPL. See for example
this:

which, let's be honest, we will never top.
