Someone had proposed that in #fedora-docs late yesterday, I like it.  I'm working on some copy right now, and will go for an ephiphany web-app style presentation in GNOME for the next RPM.

For the record, the collaboration part of my arguments here are *far* more important to me than the actual inclusion of a Release Notes RPM.  It's a valid discussion, and I would much rather start on that basis, instead of potentially missing a discussion about a design philosophy on a SIG list, then finding out about the impact when I learn that an RC isn't meeting release criteria because of my package.
