I really agree with this. I think we need F11/updates and
F11/updates-testing soon after devel freeze. You get bugs reported for
snapshots, previews,... but fixing these bugs and especially delivering
them to users is too much difficult imho.
In my dreamworld we have rawhide -> F11, F11/updates, F11/updates-testing
in a few days after devel freeze. I think at least F11/updates-testing
(without F11/updates available before day or two ago F11 GA) would be
really appreciated by developers.

and one real life experience:
I'd like to upgrade to F11 snapshost / preview /... but when I'll found some
bug, it'll be fixed in F10 sooner than in F11. Not only this, but I'll have to
wait *one month* before I get these fixes! (Yes, I can download them from koji,
but I'd like to have fixed also bugs reported by other users/testers.)
/me thinks there is something wrong here...
