You are breaking a thread and starting a new one without a reference to what you are talking about. This makes it difficult to follow the context. I don't think it is possible for any one individual to speak on behalf of the entire Fedora user base. So I wouldn't even bother trying. Having said, I suspect that the large majority of Fedora contributors who are volunteers may not even care about what Red Hat Enterprise Linux needs are. That is upto Red Hat to handle.
