"In general, it is preferred if maintainers avoid releasing "alpha" or "beta" builds of packages into Fedora (both Rawhide and released updates). However a package maintainer has the right to use their own discretion regarding this issue and may provide whatever (s)he sees fit for the user base. Things to consider include the amount of testing an alpha or beta release has seen, the timeline to turn said alpha or beta into a stable release, the feature sets provided, or the bugs fixed. There may be other factors at play as well, which is why the person best suited to make such a decision is the package maintainer in question." -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- All my bits are free, are yours?
