I'm quite pleased to inform you that Robert 'Bob' Jensen is taking over
the Editor-in-Chief role for the release notes.

For the rest of FC5 release, Bob and I are working closely together on
everything from language edits, Wiki2XML, and publication.  The goal is
for Bob to be running things by FC6 test1.

Here are some of the tasks of the EiC:

* Watches all commits to Docs/Beats
* Edits content for style, clarity, and markup consistency
* Coordinates the beat writers (project management)
  - Updating release note schedules[1]
  - Scheduling announcing and enforcing 
  - Recruiting help
* Ensures content goes:
  Wiki -> XML -> PO/POT -> XML -> HTML/TXT -> {ISO, Website}
* Looks for improvements to the release notes
  - Automation
  - Process changes
  - Tool changes

Thanks - Karsten
