This is slowly getting changed. For Fedora 7, there was some effort into providing a "supported" path from Fedora 7 test 3 to the general release. This could certainly be changed to cover all the test releases with some more testing and proper messaging.
Of did we document somewhere in between how to switch from rawhide to release before rawhide moves on? If yes please point me to, then I'll blog about it to get the old scheme out of peoples head.
