We are not there today, which would be our last day to enter RC phase and still have enough time to release on the 26th.  We hope to enter RC phase in the next couple days, and hit our new target, June 2nd.

Thanks for the warning, I don't honestly expect the release to be a lot 
different than rawhide. In any case I am using fc11 pre where it makes sense 
already, as are most people I know who would be using it before it has a chance 
to settle.
