The Fedora Test List is for discussing all testing of Fedora-related
software, not just unreleased distros. The User list (i.e. this one) is
for discussing released versions that are still supported. Note that not
everyone on the Test list reads the Users list, so posting on Users when
you want to comment on unreleased components is going to miss at least
some of the audience who might want to read your post (and of course
cross-posting is frowned on as well).
