It is ready, and GA with Red Hat 6.2. I would suggest RHEL, due to
the need for quick application of security updates on something as
sensitive as the Identity Management server.<br>
<br>
If you wish to test it out, I can recommend the Fedora 15 branch as
being quite stable. I've only recently started working with a
Fedora 16 install, so I can't personally vouch for that yet.<br>
