That is exactly what you'll get by using every nth release of Fedora core
and by upgrading from the fedora-legacy-project.

Hmmm. I'm pretty sure you will be able to get service level agreements for
your fedora installed sysrtems, it just depends on the price. :)

But seriously: Would you consider debian as a server OS? Last time I
looked the debian project did not offer SLAs or anything similar.
Come to think of it, I know of exactly three companies which do have SLAs
for their servers running RedHat Linux. (two of them are constantly
bitching about their satellite up2date server...)

So if there is no conscoius decision to make fedora a consumer OS without
any security features and a a desktop centric view I do not see why this
is no server OS?
