We have an important job in producing the release notes for Fedora
Core.
My idea for doing this is to breakdown the relnotes into journalistic
beats.
Here are the categories that I have come up with so far.
* Kernel
* Desktop
* Printing
* Server Configuration Tools
* File Systems
* File Servers
* Web Servers
* GCC/Development Tools
* Security
* Java
* System Daemons (cron, etc.)
* Sound and Video
* X Window System (xorg)
* Status of all Packages
What is missing or should be changed about these?
Scattered thoughts on the categories:
- Perhaps Sound & Video is more Multimedia, as video/graphics goes with
X.
- File Systems are closely tied in to the kernel, so may be those should
go together.
- IMHO, Samba is sufficiently funky to warrant it's own category.
- Perhaps have a Networking category to encompass DNS, DHCP,
NetworkManager etc. It could be argued that the client and server
software ought to be handled as a single group here.
- It may be that PPC has specific issues that warrant it being handled
separately (no idea).
- Not sure where database servers ought to go.
To get things started: I can cover some combination of networking, Web
and Samba/File servers, plus databases or installation issues if those
are worthwhile categories.
