it is time to blink and reconstitute RH-controlled Fedora project

Allow me to correct this misconception right now: Red Hat does not
control Fedora. Red Hat _sponsors_ the Fedora Project (with funding,
technical infrastructure, etc.); but the _control_ of the project as a
whole ultimately lies with the community of its developers and
supporters.
Moreso than the distribution it produces, Fedora is a Community.
Fedora is a test system distro, by everybody's admission; this is
also
amplified by misguided handling of the *default* choice of DE, which is that
RH-influenced disaster called GNOME 3.
Fedora is not a test system as you so claim. Sure, Red Hat bases its
Enterprise Linux product on Fedora releases every so often; but Fedora
is more than just a test for RHEL - it is a high-quality distribution in
its own right.
