I just don't se why they can't acknowledge that Fedora is great, which makes RHEL even greater. Fedora is what RHEL could/should/might be. "The child is father to the man."
It's a simple as Fedora is good for: (insert ten bullets, much of whom don't appeal to who Red Hat sells RHEL to), followed by RHEL is good for: (insert twenty bullets, all of whom appeal to who RHAT sells to). In other words, RHEL is supported, deeply and for 7 years. Fedora ain't... you don't have to twist a Fortune 500 company's arm very hard to convince them not to deploy without a safety net. Any IT staff worth their salt would like at least one neck to choke when the fit hits the shan.

You want it to get better as quickly as possible? Pay for my travel
expenses for me and my baseball bat to have a face-to-face meeting
with each and every person inside Red Hat who has the authority to
make public statements to the press concerning Fedora's positioning.
I guarantee that when they regain consciousness, they will have a
clear understanding of how to represent Fedora, even if everything
else is a bit hazy.
