What Matthias is saying, I think, is that it would be good for us to
include at least a small "About Fedora" document in fedora-release,
which would talk about the project, link to release notes, etc.  (I
think we should also include a link to the main docs page, where we can
add instructions on installing our other RPMs when they are available.)
The yelp package (GNOME help facility) now provides the ability for us
to place items on the "front page" -- not text per se, but a link to a
document.  We can do this thorugh an OMF file that scrollkeeper parses
automatically.  

We can now add this kind of documentation helper as part of our RPMs;
however, none of that is included in fedora-release.  I can provide the
XML and OMF, and drop it in release-notes for inclusion if that's the
location whence these sorts of things are derived.  Am I on the right
track?
