Can anyone tell me something about rawhide?

Thanks,

Rawhide is the untanned skin of a bovine creature.  Once the skin is
tanned, it is considered leather.

From ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/rawhide/README:

Rolling, Rolling, Rolling

In an effort to improve communications with the development community,
enable Linux users to test bleeding-edge technology, speed development,
and improve the quality of future Red Hat Linux releases (as well as to
end world hunger and eliminate human conflict), Red Hat will be 
releasing
development versions of the Red Hat Linux Operating System on a regular
basis.

Dubbed Raw Hide, the releases will have version numbers independent of
Red Hat Linux's version. Raw Hide 1.0 will appear on ftp.redhat.com on
Friday, August 14 for public gnawing.

So what you are saying is that Rawhide software is Unfinished software. So
we should avoid software from this Rawhide category?

Thanks

The usability of the software in Rawhide varies greatly.
It will range from quite stable (just before a new distribution is
released) to uncompilable (just after the release of a new gcc,
gnome, kde and/or glibc).

 So we should avoid software from this Rawhide category?

Unless you like living on the edge or you really, really need
the latest version of a particular package, it's probably
best to avoid using these.

In any case, Red Hat doesn't support them. If it breaks, you
get to keep both pieces.

I thought Rawhide was Buckaroo Banzai's right hand man?  Until the Red
Lectroids killed him, that is.
