Interesting. I took a quick look at the site.  I am amused
by their repeated reference to "the prominent North American
Enterprise Linux vendor".  Who might that be and why not say it?
I suppose I should ask them.

I am happy to know there is an alternative in case of unforeseen
changes in policy by the "the prominent ...", but at this point I
see no reason to switch.

What is downside of staying with FC and only occasionally updating?

Thanks for your comments.
Mike.
