Respins aren't really that useful in this context. We can easily choose what
we want to install, and we can easily apply the updates either during or
after install. A respin won't help us in these manners. What we don't like
about Fedora is there is not really any attempt to keep a non abi changing
platform, the updates are fast and loose, and the distribution releases get
flushed quickly.
Fedora is great for short term or developmental servers, whereas RHEL/CentOS
is far more suited for long term production environments.
