I'll be using the text found here for tomorrow's announcement to fedora-announce-list:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_12_Announcement
I noticed we've dropped our old legacy habit of producing a humorous preface, in favor of a more cut and dried approach. I'll likely precede the text with a short (promise!) thank-you note and a URL for http://get.fedoraproject.org at the top, for people who want to cut to the chase.
Thanks to everyone who worked on the announcement text.

I just realized that I didn't actually discuss that choice. I thought our Fedora 12 Beta announcement got good reactions and wanted to just improve on that with minor tweaks rather than use the humour approach. Hope that is ok with everyone.

Works for me. I was just happy that someone had tweaked it for final! :)

I just went through and did a final once-over for grammar/style tweaks. I'm now copying it for posting to the list.
