I originally reported this issue at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1862703 but was asked to re-report it here:
I was using
whatcanidoforfedora.org to see what areas I could contribute to. I selected
"Validate Releases" and it took me to the QA wiki:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Join#release-validation
That section says:
For information on getting and installing pre-releases, see <this page>.
where "this page" links to:
https://fedoraproject.org/get-prerelease
However, navigating to that page gives the message:
This page is outdated!
You will be redirected to:
https://getfedora.org/
That general
getfedora.org page doesn't seem to be applicable for directing potential
testers on how to test pre-releases.
Maybe this could be fixed?
Thanks for reporting this, and sorry for the trouble!
The section had got a bit stale indeed. Before
getfedora.org existed,
the get-prerelease URL always had some useful content even when no
current pre-release was available, but now things are a bit different.
I have revised the text on the page to link directly to
getfedora.org
with some wording explaining that it'll mention a Beta release whenever
a current one is available. I took out all references to Alphas since
we don't have them any more. I also updating the "Developing tools"
section a bit while I was in there. :)
Thanks again!
