Which deadline would that be?
Unfortunately, I'm stuck doing things for FUDCon and JBoss World right
now, so my attention is split - with very little left over for Fedora at
this time. I'd invite anyone to check out
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing/Tasks and pick something up to
help us out.
Maybe make a page for suggestions or link the release notes to us?
Anything would be appreciated.
