I don't think I'll take the risk, especially after seeing Kevin's post.
I can wait for the updates-testing versions.

You seem to be somewhat confused about the meaning of Rawhide. At any
given point in time Rawhide is the *next* version of Fedora which is
currently being worked on, i.e. at the moment it's F10. It's really for
testing only, so you can expect to have a busy time keeping everything
running until it stabilizes (around November according to the current
plan). That's why there's no Rawhide for F8. It's called F9.
