You're right that we generally only get the meat of the test cases and so forth up about 48 hours in advance. However, the actual *schedule* of events is fixed a lot earlier than that. The F11 schedule was here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Test_Days/F11 and most of the days were listed there weeks before they actually happened. The F12 one is up now: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Test_Days/F12 and will be getting populated starting pretty soon. So you do at least have the opportunity to see what days are coming up in future, though the test cases and live media may not be available yet. > 7.

For a couple of test days in the F11 cycle, we did wider announcements to general-interest sites, and this was pretty successful; it's something we'll be doing for F12 too. However, it's not appropriate for all test days (some are things that are really specific to a Fedora audience, or even more selective than that) - we have to pick ones that are both of interest to a general audience, and that a general audience will be able to participate in (i.e. can be tested from a live CD with general-purpose hardware).
