Rawhide is the name given to the current development head of Fedora. It consists of a package repository called "rawhide" and contains the latest build of all Fedora packages updated on a daily basis. Nightly builds are also available during the early portion of the Fedora Release Life Cycle.

Hi thanks...

That means, the newest devolopment of Fedora without Gnome and such, but only the fedora kernel, core "the machine so to speak " ?

Hi, it means the newest development of all packages, including GNOME packages, KDE packages, Kernel, etc...

Have a look at:
http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=fedora

Scroll down a bit and it will show you a table with package versions for each fedora release including rawhide.
