Don't know.  We are hoping to have a beta in the next couple of weeks.

We have proposed this to the Fedora DS community.  There has been much, 
much heated debate on both sides of this issue.  Some people vehemently 
oppose FHS package, some welcome and encourage it.  The Fedora DS 
developers are still trying to figure out a way to do what's right for 
the community.  We can certainly make it easy to build your own package 
from source using either FHS or self-contained style packaging.  The 
real problem is that it is very difficult to provide binary packages and 
documentation for both formats . . .
