Comment 4 Zach Oglesby 2011-05-04 00:48:08 UTC 
I have changed the requirements in the git repo (under the f15 branch) and
pushed the changes to transifex as well. 

I have made the changes based on input from bug 701780.


Please let me know if anything else is needed.

The online release notes are still showing:
Minimum RAM for text-mode: 256 MiB
Minimum RAM for graphical: 384 MiB
Recommended RAM for graphical: 512 MiB 

http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/15/html/Release_Notes/sect-Release_Notes-Welcome_to_Fedora_15.html#sect-Release_Notes-Hardware_Overview

Git is showing:
Minimum RAM for text-mode: 256 MiB 
Minimum RAM for graphical: 640 MiB 
Recommended RAM for graphical: 1152 MiB

BTW, text-mode should be 640 too ...
