I could definitely see value in having these images be more

`fedora24prerelease` with tags of date timestamps and `latest` follows
latest prerelease.
I don't know how hard this is to achieve, just describing ideal
scenarios.
tl;dr - I'm going to suggest we add a 'next' tag for the upcoming
releases if that's feasible.
Anybody know how other projects handle this? What's the most useful
flow for people building on our container images?
* Alpine has tags for 3.1 -> 3.4 (also "latest") and then "edge"
* Debian has 8.5, 8, jessie, latest and then oldstable, sid, stretch,
testing, unstable...
* Ubuntu, afaik, doesn't have any pre-release images. They have 16.04,
15.10, 14.04, etc. (also with their release names, xenial, wily,
trusty, etc.)
My thought is we'd want all current versions still receiving updates,
plus rawhide, plus the upcoming release. My suggestion would be to add
a tag for "next" that is the upcoming Fedora release.
Thoughts, comments, flames?
Best,
