After having a second  Fedora 23 Alpha Go/No-Go meeting, the developers behind the popular Fedora Linux distribution announced that the Alpha build of Fedora 23 would be available for download and testing through the official channels on August 11, according to the release schedule.

We reported at the end of July that the feature and software string freeze was in effect for the Fedora 23 Alpha starting July 29. We also wrote about the fact that the Alpha build of the Fedora 23 Linux operating system was initially scheduled for release on August 11, 2015.

"At the Fedora 23 Alpha Go/No-Go Meeting #2 that just occurred, it was agreed to Go with the Fedora 23 Alpha by Fedora QA, Release Engineering and Development," says Jan Kurik, Fedora Program Manager at Red Hat. "Fedora 23 Alpha will be publicly available on Tuesday, August 11, 2015."

Therefore, this is probably one of the few Fedora Linux versions to respect the initial release schedule. The development cycle of Fedora 23 will continue with the release of the Beta build on September 22, and the final release of the operating system on October 27, 2015, if everything goes according to plan, of course.
