Fedora Core 4?

I know that Core 3 was released back in November, so there probably isn't much new with it. But, does anybody have any information about new things in fedora core 4? Is anybody here involved in the development of fedora?
 
They used a time based release time scedual instead of a feature based release timing.
A new release ever six months or so.

Seems to be the more successfull big open source projects are moving towards that trend. Otherwise it's to easy to end up like Debian and have "just one last thing", or "we can fit one more update/bugfix" and end up not releasing a final product for years.

Wow, if only OpenBSD would do that. Oh, wait, they've been doing that forever. 😛

Actually Debian's in the "we still have XXX RC bugs to fix, might as well let Gnome 2.8 in" and then some RC bugs get filed against the new Gnome packages so the number of RC bugs never gets to 0. Personally I don't really care, on any machine I use I install Debian exactly 1 time and after that I upgrade to sid and just run that, I get almost bleeding-edge packages with Debian QA.

I was thinking of OBSD, too, when I said that. But I thought it a bit redundant to mention every single project that I know of that does that. 😉
