Now that the Beta version of the Fedora 22 Linux operating system is available for download and testing, the Fedora developers are discussing plans for the next release of the distribution, Fedora 23.

We previously reported that the Fedora 23 distro would come this fall, based on a proposed release schedule. Now, the Fedora 23 release schedule is live on the Fedora Project website and suggests that the final release of Fedora 23 will be on October 27, 2015.

The development for Fedora 23 starts approximately one month after the release of Fedora 22 on May 26. Whereas the Alpha version of Fedora 23 might be published on August 11, the Fedora 23 Beta arrives on September 22, 2015.

"Fedora 22 is at its Beta stage now, so it is time to take a closer look on Fedora 23 plans," says Jan Kurik in an email. "Fedora 23 starts with change proposals and as for now, we aim on October release. Initial schedule of Fedora 23 is available at the usual place to give you and idea how it looks like."

Now, we all know that Fedora releases are prone to delays, which means that the dates proposed in the initial release schedule might by changed at a later time and the final version of Fedora 23 could actually see the light of day sometime in November 2015.
