There were a number of updates in "Testing" for Fedora Core 4 at time of transition to Legacy. The Fedora Legacy Project will examine these and re-release them as updates-testing if they are security related in the daysahead.

Fedora Core 6 Test 2 (5.91) has been released:

The Fedora Project announces the second release of the Fedora Core 6 development cycle, available for the i386, x86_64, and ppc/ppc64 architectures, including Intel based Macintosh computers. Beware that Test releases are recommended only for Linux experts/enthusiasts or for the technology evaluation, as many parts are likely to be broken and the rate of change is rapid.

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Core/Schedule Test 3 is scheduled for release September 11, marking the continual freeze point of the Fedora Core 6 release. Only critical bugs fixed after this point. It is important that we get your help in testing, reporting and suggesting fixes for bugs, and directing the technological improvements we attempt with this release of Fedora Core. Please direct bugs to http://bugzilla.redhat.com, product Fedora Core, Version fc6test2. As always, be sure that your bug is not already fixed by updates and search for existing bugs before filing.

Thanks to all in the Fedora Project Community who have contributed to this release. Your continued efforts are what makes Fedora possible.

Will Woods, the new test lead for the Fedora Project, has only been in his position a few weeks, but already he has a clear goal in mind. Whenever Fedora is mentioned on Slashdot, he notes, "There's always someone who will comment that Fedora is just Red Hat's beta test for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). It's not true, and I want no one to have cause to say that ever again."

Fedora Core 6 Test 1 has been released:

Just two years ago, a brave test pilot by the name of Mike Melvill successfully guided SpaceShipOne 62 miles above California, USA, overcoming technical problems that could have proven tragic to become the first civilian to reach space, part of a team effort that won the ANSARI X Prize. A team of civilians working together to accomplish a dream, an unbelievable goal.

Today, we of the Fedora Project send our "test pilot" out into the world, hoping to do the impossible. Improve upon the last release! (:
