| I'm in the same boat. We, as an enterprise, have standardized on RHEL6 as our OS, with RHEL7 only on the horizon. Switching to either Fedora or CentOS isn't an option. But the only "official" 389 release for RHEL6 is years old.
I reported a bug about a year ago, 47739, that's been fixed since 1.2.11.26. But only 1.2.11.15 is available for RHEL6. So, yes, there's at least one fix that we need that isn't available to us. But really, there's tons of bug fixes and features that have come out since then. The longer we're held back, the harder it will be to get our user base to adapt to all the new features once we do upgrade.
Is compiling from source our only option? Because, I can do that. I'd just rather not have to.

the web page is outdated, links for coprs are not working
either , maybe they are not valid anymore.
They are not, and have been removed. It was just too difficult to
maintain the copr repos. The recommended versions are now the ones
provided by your base operating system.

As a user of
Centos6x I'm somehow lost when I see versions of the product
coming out whereas my servers are stuck with the older ones.
Right. We are trying to keep EL6 versions stable - they are mostly
in maintenance mode. Is there some feature you require that is not
available in 1.2.11 but is in some later version? If not, then do
you really need to upgrade?
Should I make
the move to Fedora?
It depends. Have you considered upgrading to CentOS 7.x instead?
The only problem is that the admin server and console bits are not
yet available, but should be shortly.
