EL is used in short for the Centos Enterprise Linux release, based
strictly on Redhat's upstream. So it is a touch behind in the "bleeding
edge" category compared to Fedora. As FC6 is at EOL switching to Centos
LTSP may not be a bad idea, Centos 5.1 has recently been released and
will be supported for a few years(I can't recall the exact dates at the
moment).
There is a build of LTSP ported to Centos versions 4 and 5, they can be
found here:
ftp://k12linux.mesd.k12.or.us/pub/K12LTSP/
Under:
5.0.0-EL-32 or 64
4.2.3-EL-32 or 64
