Would you be willing to take that on, bug them & get something back? It 
doesn't have to be a perfect article or anything, just braindump-style or 
bulletpoints, anything we can use to write the actual text...

If there are exciting changes, that'd be awesome. I have no idea so I do look 
forward to hearing about them. Be sure to ask for future plans too - one thing 
that I know is high on the request list is the ability to remove un-needed 
packages (libraries which have not been explicitly installed and due to the 
removal of the package they where needed for are now obsolete). If they plan 
anything in that department, that'd be good news.
