This is a big release for us, so we need to make a dedicated Fedora Magazine article for it!
Noteworthy to reiterate from earlier releases (firsts!):
Upcoming goodies shipping as updates in the summer with Plasma 6.1:
Also note the two deliverables we have: Fedora KDE Spin (kde.fedoraproject.org) and Fedora Kinoite (kinoite.fedoraproject.org).

Comment from Joseph Gayoso:
I would look at how the "what's new in Workstation" articles are structured and follow that. If I remember correctly, a lot of the changes do end up being just the upstream updates to Gnome, but that's fine because they also make up the changes to Workstation.
This needs to be drafted by Sunday-ish to get reviewed and queued up for Tuesday on Monday.
I would propose the article ASAP using the instructions that @marcdeop linked to so that the Magazine team knows this is coming, makes time to review, and so we can start the discussion on publishing time. If this article for Fedora KDE 40 is happening, it should go out on the same day as the Workstation article. That's the kind of thing to confirm with the Magazine team.
I authored the articles for Workstation 35-39 (the one for 40 is being done by an Outreachy participant). Generally the articles I wrote were structured like this:
Unfortunately I’m not available to write an article for Fedora KDE 40 but I hope this might help whoever does write it :)
@ngompa @marcdeop @joseph There is an issue opened here: https://pagure.io/fedora-magazine-newsroom/issue/265 for a what's new article that has been worked on by one of the interns. @aday has given some feed back on it. Here is the link to the preview on WP: https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=39923&preview=true&preview_id=39923
If this helps you get started or you need to replace it we need to work on it fast.
@ngompa @joseph Pagure Ticket #284 opened to track this in the Fedora Magazine.
Metadata Update from @ngompa: - Issue assigned to joseph
SIG members, please see my draft below. You can provide feedback either in a comment on the google doc or in this ticket. By tomorrow evening my time (EST) I will send the draft we have to the Magazine team for their review so that it's ready for release on Tuesday. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1yFsqtm-bjyIAphz4hpayR4ScKX-3obYmD9U12miMuuw/edit?usp=sharing
I know some people left comments in the google docs file. But I think with those comments it should be pretty good to go! Thanks @joseph !
Thank you for your feedback!
