Can we make it wiki/Rawhide? I hate UnNecessary CamelCase. :)

Yes, let's just make it clear -- "rawhide is the permanent codename for
wherever the development branch is".
If you go into a CVS module, you'll find foo/FC-6, foo/F7, and
foo/devel. You won't find foo/Zod, foo/Moonshine, and foo/rawhide.

I don't know, but I always thought it was (ironically) about
demystifying the development tree. It may have been "rebranding", not
sure.
