I'd like to add some additional emphasis on how SL is "like RHEL, but
still not exactly like it" with some final tweak proposals

1. While this has been already done, I do applaud the disabling of
hiddenmenu on GRUB, good call there.

2. Add the Cantarell font to the main repository. The logo uses it, so
it'd be pretty ironic if it weren't included.

3. Make the default font on GNOME also be Cantarell. While it is the
GNOME 3.0 font, it would give us a rather unique look as opposed to
the other EL spins out there. Perhaps in the installer too.

4. I think we've missed some traces of folder names referencing
Company Which Must Not Me Named in some packages (like redhat-logos
and the KDE part especially ... why is one of the KDE icon themes
"Fedora"?), http://wiki.centos.org/QaWiki/6/AuditStatus can provide
some clues on that

5. Update the screenshots in the installation tutorial, cause
obviously some stuff has changed

6. Maybe we could use a "release banner" and other promotional stuff
for the release (like
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork/PromoBanners#Fedora_12_.22Unite..22
)
