Now, if you do an early branch request.  April 8 if you want to wait.

Well, there's a problem there.  Even after the branching occurs, your
builds won't hit rawhide as that is composed from the dist-f9 tags
still.  So dist-f10 builds will be queued in koji and can be gotten from
there, but it won't hit a wider audience until after F9 is released.
