You are mistaken and should know better unless you have your head hidden
in a barrel.
AIUI it is the goal of RedHat to use fedora and its successes as a test
bed to improve the RHEL product.

Thus a polite and not so intrusive feedback to the fedora community
about the progress of RHEL is not (IMNSHO) imposing in any way and I
personally welcome the update.

The only difference between Novell/SUSE and RedHat/Fedora is the extra
layer of the fedora project.  Otherwise you can clearly see that a major
source of funding for Fedora comes directly from RedHat.
