=== Lead Writers ===


The Documentation Project is looking[1] for lead writers for some of the published documentation, such as the release notes. Lead writers are responsible for making sure the information in the documentation is updated for the current release, some editing tasks and publication duties.
=== Release Note Beat Writing ===

There was some fedora-doc-list discussion[1] started this week by John McDonough about hurdles that new beat writers face. He detailed some of his hurdles with writing release note beats for Fedora 10 and ways he worked through them. While there hasn't been a lot of follow-up discussion hopefully there will be some refinement in writing processes after some more people weigh in.

Release Note Beat Writing

There was some fedora-doc-list discussion[1] started this week by John McDonough about hurdles that new beat writers face. He detailed some of his hurdles with writing release note beats for Fedora 10 and ways he worked through them. While there hasn't been a lot of follow-up discussion hopefully there will be some refinement in writing processes after some more people weigh in.
