Added marketing in cc (probably better place for discussion).

Does it make sense to ship a small pdf (say having a title "Welcome to
Fedora") or if possible a video for users as an introduction to our
distribution ?

If yes, because it makes sense to keep it as small/simple as possible
what should it target to achieve ?

Points out of my head are:
1. New features
2. Availability of options for just updating system for security
fixes, selected enhancements or bugfixes for some applications
3. Ways to get support/help from community - bonding
4. Feedback/reporting failures/or have suggestions etc

Also, how much sense would it make to put a slide show in installer
which highlights features/talk points ?

From my point of view, yes. Maybe not only to ship, but also to share
no social networks, introduction card to new people, geeky stuff to
existent people, etc...
