Hello,
Ben has already answered the organisational stuff, but if you have asked
because you wanted to know
how safe it is to use the Beta version, my reply would be that it is
generally safe enough, but sometimes
a surprise can jump at you from behind the fence.

So, if you do not mind taking some risks, you can freely install and use
it. If you want to be on the safe side (you
need stability before anything) then stick with Fedora 33 and wait some
time after the Final release and then upgrade.

What's in Rawhide will become Fedora Linux 35. F34 branched from
Rawhide in February and all F34 work has been done in the f34 branch
since then.

Packagers continue to update their packages as necessary. A lot of the
work at this point is (or at least should be) bugfixes. Once the Final
Freeze in place, packagers can continue to submit updates, but those
will be held until the release day unless they fix a release blocking
bug[1] or have been granted a freeze exception[2].

The full schedule is published to Fedora People[3]. (Click the links
at the top to see tasks per functional area)

newbie question about the Branched version

[David]

I am assuming that at this stage in Fedora 34 development, that
nearly everything being tested in Rawhide currently, that passes
certain test, eventually ends up in Fedora 34 until Tuesday, April 20th
at 1400 UTC.

It just seems like there is at least a 3 week gap on the advertised
schedule between Beta Target and Final Freeze.

Does anything exciting happen during that time ?

I assume there is a more detailed schedule used by the people
doing all the work.
