Nathan, I like that idea of the outline, perhaps since it involves moving things and creating new pages we should also have a goals and a deadline.
As far as what Kevin stated that there are both 4.6 and 4.8 releases out I certainly think we should focus on 4.8 for now because it will get us started in that cycle of Rawhide > Stable > Official Release notes. 4.6 we can always work on, however 4.8 will be what I am putting my attention on for now so we can get some awesome docs up.

Upon brainstorming, I thought that perhaps we use wiki as our testing grounds for what goes into the Official Documentation. We can all decide what makes it in, and while transferring it to Official Documentation we can also create portable formats for users. I think we should branch Wiki documentation into two areas, Stable and Rawhide, because I know some users already compile and use the newest releases and updates for Fedora and we can get a jump start on Rawhide Documentation by allowing those individuals to contribute in that wiki. Rawhide documentation could then transfer into stable after review and finally transfer to official docs prior to Rawhide's release.
That sounds good to me.
Currently, f13/f14 have 4.6 and rawhide has 4.8, so there will be differences. It would be good to keep them seperate and work on them each.
I like the idea of writing up drafts and getting it put together before we import it into publican to allow widespead docs. :)

Sounds good. I will start splitting wiki into stable and rawhide. If anyone else wants to help feel free to email me and we can figure out where each other left off. I will start write ups on rawhide and a user-guide asap as well.
Good stuff. Perhaps if we make a list on the wiki of all the topics we want to cover in the guide, a kind of outline of the document structure, then people can just fill in the sections as they go along?
