The term rawhide stems from before Fedora (Core). During Fedora Core 1

any rawhide references have been officially changed to development.
But rawhide is such a persistant name that it just doesn't fade away :)
Don't ask me why it was decided to not use this name anymore, maybe
because it was derived from and resembles too much Red Hat
("Raw-Hide")? But people need a name for the next to come release, so
rawhide is still used.
Maybe if instead of a generic name like "development" it would get a
code name then people would really drop using the term rawhide. Or
Fedora could just reembrace the term "rawhide" and use it more
prominently in the wiki, as most developers use the term rawhide
anyway on lists, irc etc.
So to come back to your problem: Just look for "development" instead
of "rawhide" in the wiki.
"development" is too generic of a word. Searches will find too much
irrelevant information. We need to call it something unique or we lose.
