no ... *really* ... any ETA for updated beta?

I don't mean this as a flame so please don't take it as such.
I would imagine that the managers are looking to you and your expertise more 
than the content of a web page. It is up to you (as it is up to all of us that 
report to management) to let them know the spirit of the changes that Red Hat is 
making to their development and release policies. Reassure them that you are 
both monitoring and participating in the discussions that are leading up to the 
release of the revamped policies. Make them aware of any information that is 
pertinent to their (your) systems. And most of all remain calm until their is 
some good reason to get nervous.

This is not the first time any of us has sat around waiting on a release whether 
it had an announced schedule or not. No vendor whether it is hardware, software 
or consulting can give you information that is 100% on the money.  The best you 
can ask for is that the vendor is honest with you and does their best to do the 
right thing.
