Any news on this please ?
As previously mentioned on both this list and elsewhere we're looking to do this sometime once 3.14 lands in F-20. I'm travelling at the moment and we want to ensure we support serial over the usb-otg port and a few other bits as part of the release.
FWIW, there were some reports of people, who were able to install f20 successfully on the BBB. See [1]

I had problems with the final release of FC20 on a BeagleBoneBlack, because of a kernel bug in communications. However, the earlier RCs of FC20 install fine, and from there yum will update you to the latest and greatest.
Interestingly the page you pointed to says you need to do this:
vi /run/media/$USER/uboot/uEnv.txt abcboard=am335x-bone > abcboard=am335x-boneblack
I've never done this. My uEnv.txt still says abcboard=an335x-bone. I wonder what changing this to boneblack would do for me?
