That's about right.  The schedule is at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Schedule but if course it can always
slip.

Well, an alpha is due on Monday.  This is intended to give a reasonable
platform for testing the various features.  In general things are pretty
stable but as always with test releases you may run into problems.
Generally if you keep to non-esoteric hardware configurations and are
prepared to do a little digging if you run into a problem you can get
things going.
