I thought so too earlier on but from interacting with users, it isn't 
quite true. Even for alpha or beta releases, a lot of people (and press) 
like screenshots. Screenshots and screencasts attract people throughout 
development cycle. Any major change in the interface like Plymouth in 
the earlier release and volume control in this release is definitely 
worth highlighting.

Also, instead of trying to put together all of the release notes at the 
end of the cycle, I am trying to do it more incrementally and do a 
better job each milestone. Except for a few notes about what a alpha or 
beta release means, it is worth taking it as seriously as the general 
release. I am now more or less done with the Fedora 11 Alpha release 
notes and pretty happy with it.
