The Fedora-site documentation may not be an improvement over our Sugar Labs, ad hoc wiki documentation methods, as the tools needed to participate are more complicated, and the Spin page documentation is not open to editing.  The Fedora Sugar on a Stick pages have not been edited since Mirabelle was released in May 2010.
The Fedora-site documentation seem not to be an improvement over our Sugar Labs, ad hoc wiki documentation methods, as the tools needed to participate are more complicated & yet to be used since Mirabelle was released in May 2010.  The only help links on the Fedora Spins download page, [http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/18/html/Installation_Guide/ch-new-users.html#sn-which-download-bt How do I use this file?], are very complicated with generic information for Fedora installations.


The attempt to better support a small number of known, working, "how to set up SoaS", instructions has not yet been fulfilled.
