I think you've hit on a problem.  The ISVs that I work with are
completely focused on "Enterprise Linux" distributions -- which is the
idea.  AFAICT, they have not gotten the message that they should be
testing their software on Fedora Core.

Perhaps each release of Fedora Core should be wrapped up in a nice box
and shipped out to all of the ISVs as a RHEL "Technical Preview" or
some such thing.
