will there be an official announcement \out these updates when F14
gets released? it is a noteworthy addition and it shows we have done
collaboration with a proejct in a totally different field;
This could easily go in the release announcement:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_14_announcement
Note that announcement is currently blank, and awaiting a volunteer to
assemble it from a combination of information from earlier
announcements, the release notes, and other important data. A
completed version for F13 is here:
