I have no real information on this either .. but one thing to think about is that RHEL-7 is much less conservative with 'rebases' than the older RHEL versions. (Case in point, major shifts in Gnome, KDE, Xorg, etc.) With containers and software collections, and with more aggressive rebases in the Desktop space, I see the timelines becoming a little longer between major versions. Also, as others have said, I see no alpha or beta for RHEL-8 anywhere. RHEL-5 does go EOL at the end of March 2017, so I guess a beta could happen soon(ish).
