Rawhide rebrand:

Something akin to openSUSE's "Tumbleweed" name.

Maybe reuse the "Fedora.Next" name? Something that implies its rolling release / pre-release. Fedora Testing? For some reason "Fedora Tophat" just popped into my head as a pun on hats and being "ontop" of updates.

Greetings.

We had some nice discussions about rawhide in my friday workshop at
flock. I thought I would post here to get input from folks not there,
and also allow people who were there to comment more now that it's not
after 5pm on a friday of the 3rd day of flock. ;)

Finally there was mention of the baggage associated with the name
"rawhide". To this day I see people telling others that "rawhide will
eat your babies" or "rawhide is a methlab and will blow up in your face
every day".

As a relative newcomer (using Fedora since ~F20) the name rawhide does seem to have some implied broken-ness, if that's a word. I would be in favor of a name change/rebrand that makes it a little more approachable.
